It is not against the law but you would be breaking the conditions of the credit or debit card issuers who would refuse to refund any money lost by fraud should such a situation arise. You should seek advice about this from your card company and perhaps an organisation such as C.A.B as they might suggest some sort of power of attorney, however you need to be very sure of the scope of such a move as there are many pitfalls to be aware of. Why not go in to a branch of your bank or building society and get cash over the counter? I am sure most financial institutions have guidelines in place to help disabled people overcome such problems in branch. Best of luck G From Bridgerule in glorious Devon, England.
