Have you tried the Council?  They have some studios/one bedroomed flats on their First Come First Served website.  A lot are age banded, over 60, but there are a few for any age group.  Might be a long shot, but you never know.

Do lodging houses still exist?

 

There were quite a lot of them in the 50's. They took on 3 or4 people depending on the size of the house, each with their own bedroom. And the landlady provided meals and washing etc. She supplemented her income, they had a comfortable place to live.

 

Maybe it's time for a comeback?
