advice about new job needed please

Hi everyone. I know I keep posting questiones, sorry if it's annyoing .I just needed some advice if possible.

Iv'e just got a new job and completed my weeks training. I start tomorrow and first week tomorrow. However, I wanted to know if I can get any support. I intend to sign off tomorrow before work as I have about an hour spare until my shift starts. The thing is, I dont have a penny to my name and all I will be able to buy is a days bus ticket for tomorrow only, after that I have nothing. Will the job centre be able to help me until the 27th of october until I get payed. It's just I have bills to pay, bus passes to buy and food as I have nothing in. I really am struggling. Iv'e asked family and friends if I could borrow money, but they said no. My bank wont let me have a loan or overdraft due to my credit score so I really am stuck. Im also on the work programme with Ingeus, would they be able to help me, just in the past they have been less than helpful. If not I was hoping a provident loan may be an option, but due to my shifts it would be very difficult arranging to meed them and I cant take any holidays for at least 3 months. Thanks for reading, I really hope someone can help. Thanks.
