My current situation

Spendless

Have I got this right your husband earns £525 a month? Is there a reason for this eg a student/disabled etc or is he just in a low paid job? If hes in a low paid job could he go to night school/study and look for something better paid?

I think this is just how much he puts into the joint account but I could be wrong.

We run things with 2 accounts though so DH can have his own account / spends.

Joint account Income-£1100 (£575 from me & £525 from DH)

Well I did wonder that too but thought I was reading it wrong.OP_ What income does your OH have over and above the £525 and what is it being spent on?
