Check what firmware version you have. If it's 1.5 as far as I am aware it does not have Google voice recognition. At least mine doesn't and I cant download it. I am on orange and in the UK too.
2.1 due later this month or early April will carry voice recognition.
 
My Hero on T-Mobile (android 1.5) has the google voice search. It just came with the phone so I've no idea how you could turn it off or on.

Pace 960: I think you are mixing things up with the voice dialling or voice search on the phone (ie.e contacts etc), but you can search Google by speaking.
 
Do a search online for voicesearch.apk and install it from your SDcard there are lots of sites hosting it.
 
I think that TMobile's G2 is the only Hero that comes with voicesearch - I have never found it on my Orange Hero.
