The house is in my husbands name but I pay the mortgage - wot will happen if hes bankrupt?


My husband and I own a business which is doing badly and is in alot of debt. My husband also has £70k worth of unsecured personal debt currently under a DMP. I have been paying the mortgage for almost a year but the house is in my husbands name only. If he goes bankrupt am I entitled to any part of the equity as I have been paying the mortgage? Also would it make a difference if my name was on the mortgage? Finally is there anyway to go bankrupt and avoid losing your house? Thankyou
