ITV's Lorraine Kelly swaps presenting for singing in important move

Lorraine Kelly will be heard showing off her singing voice instead of her talking one as she'll be seen making an unexpected move for an important cause. The presenter had teamed up with a choir of women who discovered they had breast cancer after watching her chat show to create a charity single.

For the last five years, her self-titled ITV show Lorraine has run the Change + Check campaign to raise awareness of the signs and symptoms of the condition and encourage women to have their breasts examined.

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. Profits from downloads of the single will go towards the breast cancer charity Future Dreams.

Scottish presenter Lorraine joined the ensemble at the recording studio in London to meet the women and hear some of their stories. "The campaign has really made a difference and saved live," the 63-year-old said. "I’m also hugely indebted to the incredible members of the choir – women living with breast cancer – who sound like strong, sassy angels."

The campaign was initially founded by Lorraine producer Helen Addis, who was diagnosed with breast cancer. Reflecting on the importance of raising awareness, Lorraine added: "Cancer touches us all. My granny died of breast cancer and, of course, our Helen went through treatment and is doing so well."
