Lost For Words

WEDNESDAY, 8.30PM, SBS

More than 43 per cent of Australian adults don’t have the necessary literacy skills needed for everyday life, and in this eye-opening new series, eight brave Aussies are given the opportunity to overcome the shame and stigma that they’ve battled for years and transform their lives in an intensive nine-week adult literacy program. Hosted and narrated by actor and literacy advocate Jay Laga’aia (pictured), this is an empowering and uplifting observational documentary.
