The mono mixer tap in our kitchen is leaking and I think it may only
be a washer that needs replacing however I have no idea how to remove
anything to find out the problem as there are no visible screws or
nuts. Please help!

Exactly where is the water leaking out? Possibilities include:
* from the spout even when both taps are turned off fully
* from the base of the spout when the taps are turned on
* from round the tap handles/spindles

Which is it? What make of tap is it? What type of innards has it got -
ceramic or conventional washer? [Clue: How much do the handles have to turn
to turn the water on and off?]
Any chance of a picture?

If you need to get at the innards, most come apart like this:
* Prise out the little red or blue plastic disk at the end of the handle
* Remove the screw thus revealed
* Pull the handle off
* Unscrew the gubbins with a spanner - having first turned off the water
supply
