BBC Radio 4 - You and Yours, Gap Finders: Zip World co-founder Sean Taylor

Winifred Robinson speaks to Sean Taylor, the co-founder and president of Zip World, for our Gap Finders interview.

Does hurtling across a chasm at 100 miles per hour on a zip wire appeal to you? This Gap Finders guest, Zip World co-founder Sean Taylor, is responsible for hundreds of people each day doing just that. Sean founded the company in 2013 - it now employs over 850 people. He tells Winifred Robinson how his previous career in the Royal Marines - and travelling the world as a private bodyguard - prepared him for running a business; how he returned to the area he grew up in to launch Zip World - and whether you can admire the view of a national park from the world's fastest zip wire.

PRODUCER: TOM MOSELEY
PRESENTER: WINIFRED ROBINSON

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
