Something like this TP-Link EAP225 or Ubiquiti AC Lite is highly recommended as standalone WAPs due to quality performance and reliability.
Goes from HH5 LAN port --> switch --> ethernet -->poe injector (AC lite -- optional for EAP but it includes one) --> ethernet --> WAP of choice.
The HH5 would handle routing and whatnot while the WAPs only job is to broadcast the WLAN connection so wireless devices can connect to the internet.
Ye thanks.. I've ordered this ?

It's Virgin Media's job to supply internet at the speed stated on your contract. It isn't their job to deal with walls or interference in your home (hence why they ask you to use ethernet).
If you don't mind running a wire or two across the flat, an access point (such as this one https://www.amazon.co.uk/TP-LINK-EAP225-AC1350-MU-MIMO-Access/dp/B01LRQW0GM).
If running wires aren't an option, I'd probably get a better router. If you only get 1 bar 6 metres away, a booster will probably not help much at all and might even make it worse because of the interference.
