Reina Edmiston

UK

Reina started her fundraising journey in 2015 and has progressed from regional charities to the national organisation WithYou as their Trusts and Grants Manager. WithYou is dedicated to supporting people experiencing challenges with drugs, alcohol and mental health.

Reina brings her lived experience of being in recovery from alcohol to the role, and together with her proven track record of securing six figure grant income is ambitiously developing a new grants fundraising strategy to help lead WithYou’s fundraising in 2024 and beyond.

Why apply?

“I was motivated to apply to the Elischer Foundation’s mentorship programme thanks to their dedication to developing leadership skills in the fundraising sector. Recognising the changing fundraising environment, I hope to use the programme to lead WithYou’s vision for fundraising and develop new approaches to my work that respond to today’s fundraising opportunities.”
