I am afraid i can’t offer you any advice regarding your finances, you will need to seek face to face advice from your local CAB or perhaps from a solicitor.If the amount in question is under £5000 you could try the Small Claims Court. http://www.adviceguide.org.uk/index/your_rights/legal_system/small_claims.htm#Starting_a_claim
Not sure i can add much more, hope someone else is better able to help you.

Re: Need AdviceAm i understanding your correctly?
Your husband runs a glass business and the factory who was supplying his shop with glass has taken money from your husband but not delivered glass to him in return?
If that is the case you could take the matter to the Small Claims court as Ranald suggests (See http://www.hmcourts-service.gov.uk/infoabout/claims/index.htm).
However, if the factory have financial difficulties and are going into administration (out of business) then your husband becomes a creditor (someone owed money). Any assets of the company (factory premises, machinery,money etc) would then be subdivided by the company administrators fairly between all creditors which might mean your husband gets only some of his money back. Though i believe your husband may have to approach the administrators to state his claim.
So you need to find out the status of the factory really as making a Small claims court claim is pointless if the factory is going out of business. One way you could do this is to ask Companies House (http://www.companieshouse.gov.uk/) to find out what you can about the factory and if they are going into administration whom the adminstrators are. There is an online search facility to see the status of a company on that website which may help.
I would advise getting proper legal advice though. As this is a business matter i would suggest your husband contact the bank he has his business account with. Alternatively you could ask advice at your local Business Link (see http://www.businesslink.gov.uk/).
I’m not a legal expert but i hope that helps and gives you somewhere to start.
