It has been my great fortune and privilege to have been associated with the Jack Petchey Association in my capacity as Chairman of Braintree District Council in 2015/16 and in 2024. The Jack Petchey Association has provided counselling and opportunities to young people and helped them forge a successful future. I have no doubt the good work of the JPA will continue. My deepest condolences to Sir Jack’s family Cllr Lyn Walters Chairman of Braintree District Council
