Default Newbie: trying to find 'Hope'

Hi ... A friend has registered a star that she has named as "Hope", and the
only details that she has a RA12hrs 23mins 08sec Dec 4.74489 MAG 14.08

I only have a 'Noddy' telescope but was trying to help her find it using
some cunning software and pure, old fashioned, freezing-yer-buns-off luck.

Could someone please advise if we have the correct information to find
"Hope", and recommend a software package that we can punch the numbers into
to show us roughly where to look?

I use wwwstreetmap.co.uk to generate the Lat & Long for my home address,
beyond that I'm a bit stumped.

Cheers,

Andy
