Councillor Lloyd is a Watford FC and Saracens fan, a member of Croxley Green Baptist Church and an active figure in the local community.
Councillor Lloyd said: "I am honoured to have the opportunity to serve the many communities of Three Rivers and I hope I can meet the high standards and commitment shown by Chairman Amrit Mediratta last year. I want to encourage people of all ages to engage in sport and I want to work with many community groups."
Councillor Lloyd with members of the Amos TrustCouncillor Lloyd has named the Amos Trust, the work of Umthombo with street children in Durban South Africa, the Lynda Jackson Macmillan Centre for cancer support and Croxley Green Scout Group's "Building in the Community Project" as the charities he is keen to support for the next 12 months.
