There is no standard - so good to know what minimum means for her - livable wage or less than livable for a limited amount of time? She should decide beforehand and be clear on this if the question arises, or if she is offered less than that, counter it. If she is asked outright, go with livable wage. If she is offered something lower, respond with both livable wage and also the time she could afford to work at the lower wage (if at all). Is she already in London, or are you? So you have an idea of finances. Otherwise it is quite difficult for others to guess, mostly depends on rent. (In another thread someone did ask what is minimum livable wage for london, and the answers were highly varied... On phone but maybe you can search for it).
There really is no point taking work you cannot afford to do. It doesn't matter if the next person can afford to.
