My car has a knock in the front drivers wheel when I brake. When driving, there's also a small wobble that seems to be getting a bit worse. Any ideas? Thank you.

Sounds like worn wheel bearings. Raise and support vehicle, try "wiggling" the wheel. If it has play in it, then suspect worn wheel bearings or worn ball joint. I recommend servicing ASAP as this could lead to an accident if completely fails while driving.
