Six majors. Three Masters titles. 98 weeks as the world number one. But before all of that, there was a 14-year-old boy from Welwyn Garden City who'd never spent a night away from home, boarding a train to the Lake District for a 26-day Outward Bound course that would stay with him for life.

In our very first episode, host Dylan Carroll sits down with Sir Nick Faldo — golf legend, broadcasting icon, and proud Outward Bound alumnus — for a conversation about ambition, adventure, and the experiences that shape us. Nick reflects on his journey from a boy with a dream to the top of world golf, his passion for giving young players a chance through the Faldo Series, and why, more than 50 years on, so much of his course has never left him.

"Open your eyes, your ears, your mind — and take it all in."

Outward Bound and Me is a brand-new podcast hosted by Dylan Carroll.

Each episode tells the story of Outward Bound alums - where they started, where life took them next, and how their course helped shape the journey. These are honest stories of challenge, adventure and change, told by people from all walks of life.

And we're starting with a guest many will recognise - Sir Nick Faldo, one of the greatest British golfers of all time.

Whether you took part yourself, support our work, or simply want to understand how outdoor learning can change lives, this podcast is for you.
