The Charity hopes that the name indicates its values of being adept, able and adaptable.

Cedric Fredrick, chief executive of Adepta, said: "Adepta as our name will allow our organisation to face the future with confidence."

"We believe that people will be encouraged to take a new look at us and at what we do."

"We hope this will lead to new requests for our services and to opportunities for us to work in new geographical areas."
