You can use the program the installer uses by running the command gksu localizesys . Assuming you use a qwerty layout it should automatically set the proper layout if you choose English-England, it will also offer to install the language packages for Myspell, OpenOffice.org and Icedove.
An alternative solution is to edit /etc/rc.local and add this line: setxkbmap gb
Then reboot or just run the command in your terminal
