If you're currently claiming for help with any rent through Universal Credit or Housing benefit then you can apply for a Discretionary Housing Payment from your Local Authority. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/claiming-discretionary-housing-payments/claiming-discretionary-housing-payments

I don't know how much funding they will have left though because we are coming towards the end of the tax year.
