Simone Garland
Where a person may never be fully
independent, Cascade will commit to a lifelong relationship. There is a cost for stability
for someone’s entire lifetime, as recognised
in the Human Rights Act 1998. Cascade has
acknowledged the need to champion for
individuals whose stability is jeopardised by
economic pressures.
