On Friday 17th December a jolly fellow full of festive cheer enlisted the help of his friends at Rotary Club of Market Bosworth and visited the Leicestershire village of Newbold Verdon, The jolly fellow on his sleigh was none other than Father christmas or "Santa Claus". The magical man in the bright red suit was carried along in his snow white sleigh by a vintage tractor and two of his long serving reindeer, waving to village residents young and old with beaming smiles as bright as a thousand twinkling christmas lights. In this short film we see santa arrive in the village before following a route through the streets and on to main street before he sets off into the night to prepare for the big day.

  Just before Christmas in a difficult year, Santa, in Newbold Verdon with his sleigh did appear. With help from some firefighters he traveled each street, he brought festive cheer, a true christmas treat.  In 2020 santa and his sleigh made a socially distanced visit to the Village of Newbold Verdon, We join him on the main road as he enters the village with help from (Leicestershire Fire and Rescue Service Market Bosworth), who then guided him on a tour of the village. Children, Families and others watched from a safe distance on the pavement or from upstairs windows waving and bringing festive cheer as he passed by.

A look at the festive atmosphere outside the King Power Stadium ahead of the Leicester City v Norwich City Premier league match played on the 14th December 2019. My film features the Enderby Band playing Christmas favorites and santa's reindeer outside the ground at a game that also saw free mince pies and santa hats being handed out to fans attending the last game before christmas.

My Christmas card designs for 2014 featured Santa and his reindeer in a simple 'flat' design and come in two variations. The design is continued across my other Christmas communications throughout the festive season. see more below.
