Rugby cricketer Charlie Robards has written a book that he hopes will raise awareness for a condition that changed his life forever.

From a young age he loved to play sport and be active and had a dream of playing cricket professionally, but all that changed when, at 18, he was diagnosed with AS, a severe form of arthritis that affects the body and inflames the joints along the spine.

Now 30 years later, Charlie has been speaking to Vic Minett about living with pain and writing his new book.
