From what I've read they did supply some to England prior to the U.S. involvement in the war. If you want to be different check out this link.

CCKW's were used by the British Army in the Western Desert and Italy.
Check out HMVF site, there is some info and pics on there.

This subject has been discussed on other forums but no evidence of use by RAF has turned up.
