Kenneth Lloyd

Mr. Kenneth Lloyd is a Veteran of the British and Canadian Armed Forces. He is the President of the Hamilton Signals Association and, over the past five years, under his leadership, the association has developed into a caring, nurturing, and supporting organization for Veterans, young and old, and youth. Mr. Lloyd’s service with the Canadian Armed Forces included three years in charge of a Dispute Resolution Centre. The knowledge he gained in this position has helped him to establish expert contacts for the Association who are able to advise older and current Veterans, medically released members, and families of Veterans in their queries and difficulties with transitioning out of the military family. He was also a driving force behind a welcome package that is presented to returning reservists, thanking them for their service, introducing them to an association contact, and outlining assistance the Association can offer for their reintegration. Through Mr. Lloyd’s guidance, the Association has proven instrumental in helping Veterans and their families seek out the support and social services they require. Mr. Lloyd also founded a program within the Association to ensure that deserving members get recognized for their sacrifice and are able to attend significant commemorative events. His leadership has led to the evolution of the Association’s commemorative outreach, including the mobile exhibition, which travels to many commemorative events and schools. He and association members also dress in period clothing at events and teach younger generations the role that signalers and linemen played during Canada’s major conflicts.
