Author Bio

Mat won the nation's hearts when he appeared on The Great British Bake Off in 2015, finishing in sixth place. He has built a strong following on social media since then, where he shares his humorous take on life and parenting. When he's not covered in paint in his studio or fighting fires at work (literally - he's a firefighter), Mat Riley's covered in poster paint and fighting metaphorical fires at home. Having two young children who favour getting out and about Mat has cracked the code of what is needed to satisfy a good family adventure. Whether it's interesting or nerve wracking, slow paced or adrenalin filled, it doesn't matter so long as he can find a visitor centre selling tea.
