Wikimedia UK is the local Wikimedia chapter covering the United Kingdom. We exist to help collect, develop and distribute freely licensed knowledge (and other educational, cultural and historic material). We do this by bringing the Wikimedia community in the UK together, and by building links with UK-based cultural institutions, universities, charities and other bodies. We also represent British-based Wikimedians to the Wikimedia Foundation and the global Wikimedia movement.

If you share our objectives, why not get involved? You can come along to one of our events, join our email discussion list, and you can become a member for just £5.

Wikimedia UK is a trading name of Wiki UK Ltd, a not-for-profit Company Limited by Guarantee. We are supported entirely by voluntary donations (principally through the annual Wikimedia fundraiser). Please note that we are a separate organization from the Wikimedia Foundation, and have no control over Wikipedia or any of the Wikimedia Foundation's other projects.
