    I hope this is not a silly suggestion and it will depend on your risk tolerance but would you be able to get a 0% deal and transfer some to your name. The interest is the killer and just having breathing space can help massively 
    I was wondering something similar. It will depend to a great deal on OPs relationship with their partner and the sincerity of the partner's reformation, but eg. the OP taking a 0% spending card and using that to cover the £450/month living expenses would free that money up to help pay down the debts.
