Leading the merry celebrations in Derry City were none other than Santa Claus and the Mayor Ruairí McHugh, joined by a very special guest, Jenny Baird. Fresh from the Big Brother house, Jenny added extra sparkle to the event as she joined Santa and the Mayor in parading through the streets of Derry.
