  • A wonderfully engaging, motivating and honest read! Despite his ongoing battles with chronic AS, Charlie’s passion for cricket and his desire to give everything he does his all, is inspiring. His story is truly relatable and gives perspective to managing our own goals and the challenges we may face along the way. It is a fantastic reminder that chasing your dreams is never plain sailing, but with a positive mindset, a competitive spirit and a never-give-up attitude, the journey will always be worth it.
