YES - Holly Gibson, 17, Millennium Volunteer, Isle of Wight
From what I've seen, I think he could probably relate to young people quite well. After all, he's quite young himself.

I think he's also very much a real person in himself, as he shows on TV, which is important if you work with young people.
I'm the 100,000th Millennium Volunteer, and Jamie Oliver has just been made an honorary volunteer in recognition of his work with the 15 students during the programme Jamie's Kitchen.
