About Chris Kamara: Lost for Words

Renowned TV presenter and footballing legend Chris ‘Kammy’ Kamara embarks on a very personal journey as he seeks to discover a deeper insight into his recent diagnosis of Apraxia of Speech (AOS). With unprecedented access, Kammy will open up about life with AOS, a speech condition in which a person has trouble pronouncing words correctly and consistently - and shares his hard-fought battle to accept his diagnosis. As he comes to terms with his condition, he is trying everything to improve his speech, exploring therapy, seeking advice from experts and meeting others with this rare condition. Although his recent diagnosis hasn’t slowed him down, he has found working hard and even wondered if he should continue. But he is not one to give up, especially when he discovers that his public status can help raise awareness for others.
