Beginning of the end of my Mazda2

Was working on my Mazda2 (2011) yesterday and found this large hole in the space saver wheel compartment.

Was hoping to keep this until its MOT (UK) expires in September but it looks like I better start car shopping as I doubt there is anyway to patch this for 6 months other than welding, just trying to keep the rust at bay until I can find something. I've only had this since August as well.
