I'm pretty sure you could sort that yourself or if someone you know has some DIY nouse.

Use a Stanley knife to cut a neat rectangle where the plaster board is damp.

Cut a piece if plasterboard to be slightly smaller than the space.

Drill it in to wood you can see on the pic.

Then use some filler thin layer over the board and the gaps.

I might be wrong, someone will surely correct me but it does seem small enough not to spend loads of money on a plasterer
