There is a good one page guide to clearing here:

https://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/university/apply/clearing/guide-to-clearing

You can speak to a uni about whether they have spaces whilst holding offers elsewhere. But you can't receive a clearing offer until you decline your current choices and are 'in' clearing.

You cannot enter Clearing until you have your results.
