The Brief: Irish choir brings message of hope on beating cancer to Brussels

This is no ordinary choir. Most of the 42 women participating are cancer survivors. On World Cancer Day, they came to Brussels from Ireland to send a strong message.

We are here to give people inspiration to say we are celebrating the people who we have lost and that we are all still here.

Sea of Change Choir

Being the second leading cause of death in the EU, cancer is personal for many people. Including the President of the European Commission.

Watch in the player above to hear the inspiring message from the Sea of Change Choir.
