Allthumbs link should put you straight Andy, it does take time though, I still struggle after a year, part of my practice just consists of changing chords to build up speed, on some chords your fingers can walk from one to another, I used to lift off one chord and go to the next which slowed me down, it is just a question of homing in on things you're not happy with, don't get Frustrated it will all fit into place, I'm a lot better than I used to be, I've taken up guitar a few times over the years and given up when the going got tough, this time I've stuck with it and it's paid off and I really enjoy what I've achieved, still a long way to go but it's worth the effort

Cheers
