Hi claudiucho,
Have you considered volunteering with the air cadets?
They have a number of schools up and down the country where civilian instructors offer time for free and in return can become pilots on the gliding school.
Two types, conventional gliding using Vikings and powered gliding using the Grob 109, or as the RAF call them, Vigilant.
It’s all free, you get to work as part of a team, trained by pilots from both the RAF and commercial aviation and introduce…mostly keen young people to aviation.
It really taught me how to fly after I got my PPL
Here’s a link, it could be what your looking for as the hours you fly in the Vigilant count toward your PPL.

PM if you want further info
Best of luck
