Having to rent for the first time. I earn on average £1000 a month. I'm worried how I'll afford anything after rent and bills. What are good ways to save on such a low budget?

My bills are currently £615 living at home. £300 for rent and £315 for internet, phone insurance, phone and tablet, prescriptions, website hosting (startup illustrator), loan, bus travel card and food and bedding for my guinea pigs.

I finish off paying for my tablet in July so that'll free up £40. I changed my phone to sim only too but the other stuff I can't really skimp on?
