History of Fifteen – why did Jamie start it?

Fifteen is a restaurant group that uses the magic of food to give unemployed young people a chance to have a better future. Founded by Jamie Oliver in 2002, Fifteen London is the flagship restaurant and training ground for young apprentice chefs. Two other locations have followed the same inspirational model: Fifteen Amsterdam and Fifteen Cornwall. Each restaurant redirects its profits into individual registered charities. The money raised funds unique apprentice programmes, in order to train the next generation of professional chefs. 3 A little bit about Fifteen...
