It's all the same thing. It's just the idea now of spending $8/50lb or $18/10lb. Your call.
I would expect that even in the UK you have reasonably priced blasting sand, which can be silica of various shades of white or black which is slag of some type. You won't likely find it in per stores but if you search for blasting supplies or at construction supply centres, you should be able to find some.
