Cllr Jay Laplain

I have lived in Brentwood for 17 years, moving here with my wife to be closer to the BT office, where I have worked for BT for 25 years. I am a grandfather to six granddaughters. I have been councillor for Warley since 2019, sitting on various committees, and was Deputy Leader of Brentwood Borough Council in 2023/4. I want to ensure that greater prosperity for the Borough should not come at the expense of the green space the Borough enjoys, and to provide the necessary service and support to all residents.
