my husband and I have separated in march. He is in the house and I had to move out. He wanted to keep the couch that’s in my name on finance however now he has stopped paying it, says I’ve to sell it but has blocked me and won’t Give me photos to advertise it or arrange a time to pick it up. Can anyone advise where I can get advise on this if at all? He has changed the locks on the house

As far as the payments for the sofa are concerned, you need to pay, or see your credit record trashed. It's really not worth trying to get the sofa back, as the second hand value is SFA.
No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?3 -

Is it rented or owned?
If it is owned and you divorce it is likely to be an asset of the marriage even if your name is not on it.
It depends on whether it was a short marriage (less than 2 years although they may take previous co-habiting into account)?If you've have not made a mistake, you've made nothing0 -
As previously stated continue to make payments on couch, you would not get much for it secondhand anyway. You do not say how long you have been married or how you contributed to household both will have a bearing on divorce settlement. Are there children involved?0

If he won't give you access or pictures to sell it and has blocked you then he's not really giving you the option to sell it. Maybe just use some stock pictures from the place you bought it from. Otherwise it looks like your stuck making the payments. Perhaps get a mutual friend or acquaintance to ask him how he proposes you sell it if he won't allow access? Why was it you who had to move out of interest? Is there a chance you had a right to stay and he should have been the one that left?0

1 He won't give you access, then if you sell it will he let the buyer pick it up, but more importantly.
2. You shouldn't be selling an item on finance without permission of the finance company, as it belongs to them not you
