The Dee Sign Choir did a pop-up flash mob at Chester Cathedral, much to the surprise of visitors at the historic city landmark.

Something very special happened on Saturday - The Dee Sign Choir did a pop up flash mob at Chester Cathedral, much to the surprise of visitors.

Faces were filled with shock and then joy as the ensemble appeared from the aisles to the sounds of 'This Is Me' from the Greatest Showman soundtrack.

The inspiring song was signed in British Sign Language and followed by another song, 'Follow Him' from the Sister Act soundtrack.

The flash mob was captured by DSN, the charity which is partnering with Canon Jane Brooke to create an event to celebrate all things sign language on Monday, December 5th between 7pm and 8.30pm at Chester Cathedral.
