Santa delights thousands at Derry's Christmas lights switch-on

Santa delighted thousands – both young and old - who braved the wet and cold at the switch-on of Derry’s Christmas lights last night.

The man in the big red coat was greeted on stage in Guildhall Square by Mayor of Derry City and Strabane District, Councillor Elisha McCallion and her children, as well as the members of local charity Jamie’s Journie.
