Do a search for Garage R, Rob is a guy you can trust. Or look in the UK traders section for him.
an early happy Christmas wish to you unless I get stuck

I don't have a link for the breakers, and ebay is blocked from where I am right now.
It was something like plusparts I think.
Although I did find about 6 wreckers with the hubs and shafts in stock with different prices.
If you get a new hub, make sure you ask for the calliper carrier too.
If the disk is snapped there's a good chance that it bent the carrier, IIRC they are quite expensive from Honda, but the wrecker just gave it for free as part of the hub.

picture 1
Picture 2
I took these yesterday after the wheel was removed
THE MECHANIC LOOKED AT THIS AND SAID THAT I NEED THE FOLLOWING
BREAK CALIPER
REAR BREAK DISC
REAR OUTER CV JOINT
REAR BREAK DISC PLATE
REAR HUB
REAR RADIUS ARM
BREAK PAD
the drive shaft was checked and it's perfectly fine
However he hasn't worked with a s2000 before and asked me to get a second opinion before proceeding with purchasing the parts

I would say yes to all the above, get these fitted and then get a Geo set up to get everything straight. This is where furrther problems may show up if you're unlucky...
I'd be more concerned about the wishbones. even slight damage to these would cause you a lot of problems with allignment, the geo should highlight this though if there's a problem.
TBH though i'm fairly new to these cars myself and i'm no mechanic so you'll probably get some more sound advice from some of the more knowledgeable guys on here pretty soon
