Andy Woodward was a promising young footballer at Crewe Alexandra when he was groomed and sexually abused from the age of 10 to 16 by the club's youth coach Barry Bennell.

In 2016 Andy Woodward decided to go public with his story and in February last year Bennell was jailed for 31 years - but the effect on Andy's life and his family has been profound.

He tells his story to 5 Live's Nihal Arthanayake.
