Depends on what sort of time frame we are talking about here and all sorts.

For a temporary hook up in someones home I would be looking at telling them to buy an extension lead and plugging it into the nearest socket, you can even get RCD leads or a plug in RCD for the socket that is going to be used.

If though this is going to be months upon months job or there is just no place to plug into then you might need to run a temp supply from the CU to the garage

If you are to rewire the new conservatory then it will have to comply with regs. Don't just reconnect into old wiring and assume it will be fine.
