You can of course put in for an advance hardship payment, which is in fact a loan that they take back in full.
The universal part of it is supposed to make life easier because all your benefits are put into one payment, just a bloody shame that the DWP don't appear to have a clue as to what they are doing.
In theory it could work well, in reality it is a ruddy shambles.
How on earth people are meant to live for 6 weeks on fresh air is beyond me.
