separating and mortgage

I currently own my house with my husband but we have been separated for 18 months - he rents a flat nearby. I have been paying the motgage since he left with just a few difficulties in making payments last year. I want to remove his name from the mortgage and he has stated that he does not want anything from the house. However, i know on my part-time wages i will struggle to get a mortgage alone.

I am looking for advice on how best to secure the house in my name and keep my home.

I also want to know if there are any mortgages out there that would give me a mortgage based on my income and the benefits i receive, with not a great credit rating at the moment.

Any info would be really appreciated!
