The Caia Connection

In 2020, Siobhan stepped down as president of The Caia Connection after 21 years of building a wonderful partnership between the Gettin’ Higher Choir and the work of Joseph and Perpetua Alfazema in Mozambique.
The story of this work is told in the warm and evocative articles Siobhan contributed over many years to the newsletters of the Kapasseni Project and The Caia Connection.
This storybook brings together Siobhan’s articles, extracts from the newsletters along the way, and photos of the work in Mozambique, as well as posters and images from the choir’s fundraising concerts and other records of Siobhan’s remarkable journey with Kapasseni.
