Do NOT change the locks. The only thing that will accomplish is her spending money she can't afford to spend.
Make photocopies of say the last 12 months worth of payslips.
Make sure she has copies of important documents including copies of documents relating to your housing tenure (for example, mortgage details or lease and rental agreements). Insurance documents, including national insurance number and anything else you can think of.
She needs to set up a separate bank account and get child benefit and any child tax credits paid directly into that so he can't touch them. If she doesn't get CTC then she needs to apply for them now.

This is exactly what happened to my sister. He also left her with the debt and he then declared himself bankrupt so that left her to pay. She is entitled to half of everything, regardless of what he says. But that also includes any debt they have. Get help quick and hide the car.. Also if they kids are older, get them to tell you where he is living, its only fair. My sisters ex kept moving to avoid the debts and wouldn't tell her where he was taking the kids. Such bad times. Hope she goes ok. :-D

I would not let the children stay with him. They may not be brought home.

It seems like he wants to have everything.

just to be clear, are they his children ie children they had together?

What she will get doesdepend on what he came to the marriage with- if he already owned all these houses beofre they married, then no, she wont be entitled to half of all of them.

I guess the car would be a joint assest in reality, If th elog book is in her name then he cant sell it , i it isnt then he probably can.

I dont think he is obliged to give her his address, any more than she would be obliged to give him her new address if she moved
