Addaction is rebranding this month and is to be called ‘we are with you’ or ‘with you’ for short.

The charity, which has an office in Liskeard, supports people to overcome problems with drugs, alcohol and mental health.

Deputy Chief Executive, Laura Bunt said: ‘This is a big moment for us and the culmination of 18 months of research, listening, conversation and debate with the people who use, or might use, our services, our staff and volunteers.

‘We wanted to find a new name that reflects the history and ethos of our charity, and the way we work with people as equal partners in their recovery.

‘People told us that they would be three times more likely to choose us for help if we changed our name. Research showed that our new name was more inclusive and reassuring, and appealed to both young people and adults across all ages and backgrounds.’

The charity is also launching a new website to help it reach more people, provide anonymous web-chat support and self-service advice. It will be live later this month at wearewithyou.org.uk.
