Matthew Haywood: BBC Survivor Winner on Strategy & Men's Mental Health | Yorkshire Talks

This week on Yorkshire Talks, Christine and Matt are joined by Matthew Haywood, winner of the BBC's Survivor.

At just 21 years old, Matthew travelled halfway around the world, lived on a remote beach, battled the elements, built crucial alliances and outplayed every other contestant to become the sole survivor — walking away with the £100,000 prize.

In this episode, we talk about: • What it was really like competing on Survivor. • The strategy behind winning without creating unnecessary drama. • Life after the show, and building a successful outdoor adventure platform on social media. • Why he's passionate about supporting young men's mental health. • The lessons resilience, teamwork and adversity have taught him. • His love of football and family, and his lovely bond with his late gran — watch out for his emotional special item at the end.

Whether you're a fan of Survivor, love stories of resilience and adventure, or are interested in honest conversations about mental health, this is an episode you won't want to miss.
