The anonymous nominator of this week’s Silver Fern Farms Clutha Leader Local Legend, Wilma Sharp, praised a person "full of acts of kindness".

"Caring and thoughtful to many people, always giving you fresh veges, home-made relish, delicious baking, care packages when someone needs it.

"Nothing is ever a problem to Wilma ... we need more people like her in the world!"

She is also a recognised photographer, often seen at community events taking pictures and every Anzac Day she makes a wreath to hang on the old waterfront Tōtara at Pounawea

"I just like helping other people," Mrs Sharp said.

"It’s not difficult, you just ask."
