You can use first class stamps on the envelope from the UK to the country you're sending to. If, for the sake of argument, this is the USA, you will need American stamps on your SASE to get it back to the UK.

Or you can get International Reply Coupons, although they are hard to find in the UK and worth only about one-third of what you pay for them.

British stamps won't work on a letter posted in another country.
