Sharing her experiences with Sky Sports News during Mental Health Awareness Week, Ward-Chambers describes a life of tremendous hardship in physical and emotional pain - but of also receiving help. Ward-Chambers moved to Arsenal where she stayed until she was 16 before eventually joining Championship club London Bees in 2019. But during a game towards the end of the year, Ward-Chambers suffered a head injury and a broken nose. Within moments, Ward-Chambers could not feel her right leg and instantly feared she may never be able to walk again. That's the thing I'm praying for right now and to feel mentally 100 per cent when I get back, not if."
