Hi!

AFAIK most of the allied light cruisers in WWII carried torpedoes but not depth charges; the stern area on many of these ships was reserved for carrying scouting aircraft. See the following articles from u-boat.net - none of them are listed as carrying depth charges:
  • UK light cruiser classes
    Arethusa-class here
    Belfast-class here
    Bellona-class here
    Cairo-class here
    Caledon-class here
    Cavendish-class here
    Ceres-class here
    D-class here
    Dido-class here
    E-class here
    Fiji-class here
    Gloucester-class here
    Leander-class here
    Minotaur-class here

    US light cruiser classes
    Brooklyn-class here
    Cleveland-class here
    Omaha-class here
    St. Louis-class here
