You need a rear wheel cylinder seal/repair kit. It might be nearly as cheap to put a new wheel cylinder on though. If you use the seal kit make sure you check the cylinder bore. Less than perfect and it will leak again in no time. Also clean any gunge out and dip the seals in clean brake fluid when you rebuild. If you haven't done one before take some digital pictures as you strip it so you know how it goes back together. Getting the springs right can sometimes be awkward.

I've done mine recently, a new cylinder was about £6.00, I just bled that cylinder after fitting and it's fine now.

Six Pounds!!!

That's cheaper than I thought, a lot cheaper. At that price you could stockpile some in advance!
