Disabled man left 'prisoner in his own home' after his bank was blocked for almost a year

A disabled man from Cheshire was left a "prisoner in his own home" after being blocked from his bank account for almost 12 months.

David Darlington, 65, was living on just £60 a week after being denied access to his personal finances - despite having £16,000 in savings.

Cheshire Live reports that he accumulated a debt of around £26,000 in the 11 months before he could access his bank once again.
