Cassie was born in Halifax in 1995. From a very young age she was a carer to her mother, who suffered from Huntington's Disease and died when Cassie was thirteen. Despite her traumatic experiences as an abused child, Cassie has rebuilt her life far away from the location where the crimes against her were committed. She was praised by the police, the judge and numerous authorities for her immense courage and bravery in bringing her abusers to justice. At 23, she is now the devoted mother of two children. She is committed to fighting child abuse and finding joy in the everyday things we can so easily take for granted.
