Katie Langdon is Founder and Creative Director of Skin and Blister Healthcare Communications.
Skin and Blister* was born to improve the way we communicate in health, for the benefit of every body. Founded at their mum’s kitchen table, Katie and her sister* Fiona Edwards, set-up on a mission to put the care back into healthcare communications. They make complex information meaningful, accessible and useful for all. As an advertising agency, specialising in strategy and content, Skin and Blister creates marketing for the benefit of humans, animals and the future of medicine.
Highly ambitious, Katie strives to leave things better than she finds them. Having experienced her own health setbacks, she feels particularly inspired to help those facing challenging diagnoses. Her wish is that no person suffers because they don’t understand their health choices. Throughout her career, Katie developed the skills to set up an agency as a healthcare copywriter, winning multiple creative awards within pharmaceutical marketing. A first-class Biomedical Science graduate, Katie has worked in healthcare her entire career and has a life-long understanding of medicine, having grown up in an NHS family.
With her ‘let’s do this’ and ‘never settle’ attitude, Katie has grown business revenue and team.
Big pharma clients include AstraZeneca, GSK, MSD, with Skin and Blister featured on the Roche website as a sustainable partner.
Katie is passionate about inspiring others to start their own businesses, work in STEM and fit work around their lives. Furthermore, she has always believed that working without a fixed office is the future.
Based in London, Katie is an explorer of inspirational spaces, on land and sea. An avid swimmer and scuba diver, Katie is happiest underwater.
