(England) Landlord gave me notice less than a month after moving in, is this allowed?

I moved into a place in mid-April and had a year long tenancy agreement. I'm out about £3,000 from moving costs as eveything was in storage and i had to buy new furniture after a divorce.

The estate agent contacted me to say the landlord wants to move his mother into the property and gave me 4 months notice. Surely this can't be allowed? I havent even unpacked fully yet.

I can't afford to move out. I went through an awful divorce and I'm still paying a mortgage. I can barely afford the rent im paying and finding somewhere else to live is impossible, even in 4 months.

I can't save up for another deposit and moving costs. Are they allowed to just evict me like that? Is there no minimum term?
