'A raw and inspiring testament to resilience.' STEVEN BARTLETT
'A deeper truth that speaks to our whole time and culture, and offers us all a way forward.' AFUA HIRSCH
'An important and powerful read.' IAN WRIGHT
From Adolescence and Top Boy to So Solid Crew, Ashley Walters’ explosive on-screen performances and trailblazing music has always explored the same conflicting forces that have governed his life. Born and raised in Peckham, his father in and out of prison, Ashley found the gang culture in inner city London inescapable. At 15, he was stabbed in the neck and left for dead. At 18, he had a gun held to his head as he cradled his newborn son. At 20, he was sentenced to eighteen months in prison.
In this brave and inspiring book, Ashley opens up about his turbulent past. He writes candidly about his battles with identity, addiction, family and fame, and the realisation that, after years of struggle, only he could change his future.
‘Always Winning’ is the framework Ashley developed to turn his life around. Revealed for the first time in this book, explored through powerful stories from his life and career, he shares the principles of this philosophy and shows how anyone can use them to overcome their own challenges, helping them to align a true sense of purpose with inner happiness and personal success and fulfilment.
Ashley Walters is an award-winning actor, director, producer and recording artist. He rose to fame as a member of British music collective, So Solid Crew, with hits such as ‘21 Seconds’ and ‘They Don’t Know’. His extensive acting credits include Bulletproof, Missing You, Adolescence and the BAFTA award-winning series, Top Boy.
