Vice Chairman of Three Rivers District Council Councillor Chris Lloyd held a cheese and wine reception on Friday April 25, to raise cash for the Amos Trust.

The charity, which aims to promote human rights and justice for vulnerable communities in developing countries, is one of Councillor Lloyd's nominated charities for his year as Chairman (2008-2009), which begins on May 20.

Friday's event raised over £600 for the Amos Trust.

Chris Rose at the Amos Trust said: 'We at the Amos Trust are so thrilled that Vice Chairman of Three Rivers District Council Chris Lloyd has nominated the Amos Trust as one of his charities for the year (2008 - 2009). Thank you so much to all who supported our work to help South African street children at last Friday's reception; we hope this will be the first of several similar events during the course of the coming year'.
