It is with great sadness that Lowestoft Town Council announces the sudden passing of Councillor Wendy Brooks.
Wendy was first elected to the Town Council in May 2021 and served the Gunton Ward of the Town as well as being actively and progressively involved in many of the Council’s committees and projects.
The Mayor of Lowestoft, Councillor Nasima Begum, expressing deep sadness at the loss of Councillor Brooks said ‘being a councillor is not always easy. It takes commitment, resilience and a willingness to give up your own time for the benefit of others and Wendy certainly did that. Wendy gave her time, energy and experience to serving the people of Lowestoft and making a difference to the town she cared about’.
The Town Council has sent its deepest condolences to Wendy’s family. If any would like to send their own condolences, these can be submitted to the Town Clerk who will collate and share in confidence with Wendy’s family.
The Town Council and Lowestoft has lost someone who gave freely of their time and committed to making our town the best it could be and her contributions will not be forgotten.
