It is with great regret and sadness that Wychavon today announces the sudden and unexpected death of Cllr. Reg Jakeman. Cllr. Jakeman died on Saturday (15 November) aged 76 and is a sad loss to the council.
Cllr. Paul Middlebrough, Leader of Wychavon said “Our deepest sympathies go out to Reg’s family, particularly his wife Lynne. Reg was a real community man and had a particular desire to help and support the homeless. All of us here at Wychavon will dearly miss Reg.”
Cllr. Jakeman was a councillor for the Badsey and Aldington ward since 2007 and also served on Evesham Town Council. At Wychavon he was vice chairman of Audit Committee, served on the planning committee and was a very active ward member.
