At the same time he'll be able to find out if he's eligible for legal aid. Failing that, the Citizens Advice Bureau may be able to offer limited advice. Another organisation which may be able to offer advice is CAFCAS (children & family court advisory service) - they'll be in the phone book.
Yes, he can represent himself.
My husband did the same after running out of money for his solicitor..the case went on for ages, and in the end his solicitor advised he represent himself as he became quite experienced!
I would agree with an initial consultation though ~ just so he knows what he is up against, and advice can be given.
