The short answer is yes.

I checked out the 2011 UK Census, and the following is a list of relevant belief-systems that people registered when asked what religion they follow.

What it actually means to be "recognised" is up for debate, but these census submissions were all accepted as valid, so...

My cousin is Wicca and we live in the US so what would make a difference in UK ? I think the most scary  religion is Satanism,  where people worships Satan. I find that very scary :(
