I don't think you'll get much that's usable for £100 unfortunately (iPad-wise that is)
Android perhaps, or Kindle as mentioned ^WhatsApp isn't available on an iPad unless the iPad also has a SIM card. Alternative is that you put a shortcut to WhatsApp web, but then it still needs a phone or other device that actually has a SIM and you're just using the web version of that account.
It's very annoying.

Will £100 get you an iPad that’ll do web browsing, email, video calling etc. All the basic stuff, without being shit and slow? Trying to get an iPad for my mother in law, who’s wheelchair bound with MS but happily manages texting on an old phone and laptop use.
Smartphone is a bit too fiddly/droppable (and I’m sure an iPad would be equally droppable, hence trying to give it a go for cheap).
I have a gen 1 iPad but it’s basically unusable with how slow and crashy it is - which I can’t imagine would be great for someone with impaired motor control.
Can you get WhatsApp on iPads now?
