Pension Credit + State Retirement Pension should come to at least £119.05pw, probably a bit more.
Child Tax Credit should be maximum (£5235pa) - weekly payment rate may differ a little.
HB and CTB should cover full rent and council tax unless he is in private rented accommodation and there is a rent restriction in force. (Unless the Pension Credit consists only of Savings Credit).
If the above is all correct, nothing else to be done on information given.
Main possibility not mentioned is Attendance Allowance for him, Disability Living Alowance for children if there are any health problems/disabilities. Child Support Maintenance from absent parent would be worth getting.
