One Silver Fern Farms-Clutha Leader Local Legend with plenty of legs is Heather Keach, who has walked Stirling Rd, from her home on Baker St, all the way to State Highway1, picking up litter for about 30 years.

"Nobody likes seeing rubbish about.

"One day out on a walk I decided to just pick up one piece and I suppose I’ve never stopped," Mrs Keach said.

Be it bush or beach, wherever she walked she got in extra exercise by collecting unsightly trash and taking it home to bin properly.

"It doesn’t take much effort ... This is a lovely big roast ... Thank you to Silver Fern Farms ... I’ll have the family round to help me with it."
