Firstly, it depends upon nwhether you're a witch, Wiccan, or both. It also depends upon what things interest you; for instance herbs, oils, stones, energy-working, candle magick, etc.

I always recommend books; no matter what you want to delve into, books are the best resource coupled with the internet. If you are a witch maybe you could start by buying a few essentials. Herbs (lavender, rosemary, thyme, etc, are a good starting point) essential oils, candles...whatever takes your fancy, where you pull from. A pentacle would be good and if Wiccan, your God/Goddess representation.

For those who use magick I would recommend Tarot cards, a pendulum, runes, a scrying ball/glass, as well as various odds and ends. Remember, at the end of the day, you are the largest instrument, in more ways than the literal one. You determine your life. Lavendar oil can't work its magick unless you're there to wield it.

Did Wicca start in Britain?

No Wicca became popular in Britain in the 1950's, it did not start in the 1950's. Wicca or Paganism has been around for eons. Look back to ancient history, starting with Celtic tradition (just a place to start) even then Celtic beliefs will take you further back to when Wicca originated No one really knows when Wicca began, were not really suppose to, it is a simple fact of the faith. Shamanism, Paganism and Witchcraft has been around since the civilization of humans. But Wicca started as a religion in England in 1950's. There is no evidence of the existence of Wicca before that. Even Gerald Gardner does not claim so. That practice Gerald Gardner was referring to, that existed for a very long time, was Witchcraft, not Wicca. Wicca and Witchcraft are two things, not the same. Even Witchcraft was not called as Witchcraft since 1600. It is actually Shamanism. The word Witchcraft was introduced by the Vatican in 1600 to call all the Pagan beliefs, nature worship and Shamanism.

Witchcraft is not linked to a religion. Not all Pagans practice witchcraft and not all witchcraft practitioners are Pagan.

It is an umbrella term defining a specific type of religion.
