Lorraine Kelly's choir of 20 who all found breast cancer after watching her show
ok.co.ukLorraine Kelly has teamed up with a choir of women who discovered they had breast cancer after watching her chat show to create a charity single.

As part of this year’s drive, 20 women who were prompted to get checked after seeing the campaign have joined together to record the song Golden.
