What it says it does

WMUK exists 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, and with overseas bodies within the Wikimedia Movement.
