My experience is from Australia. The system is probably different from the UK, but there might also be some similarities.
I did a quick search and found that the UK also has a distributed version of the AU Research Training Scheme. Have you contacted the postgraduate student organisations, talked to your intended supervisor? You might have to defer for a year to save up enough to fund your year of research. BTW, once you get involved in your research work it is extremely hard to hold down a job as well.
