Frederica Longfoot

BSc MSc

OpenSAFELY Patient and Public Involvement and Engagement Lead

Bio

Freddie joined the Bennett Institute in 2024 as the Patient and Public Involvement and Engagement (PPIE) Lead, where she leads activities to connect patients and the public with the work of the Bennett Institute.

Before this, Freddie worked across Coventry and Warwickshire’s Integrated Care System in commissioning and transformation roles, specialising in mental health and emotional wellbeing. There she collaborated with teams and the community to co-design strategies that improved both patient and staff experiences. Her passion lies in creating meaningful change by ensuring that people’s voices are heard and valued in shaping healthcare services.

Freddie enjoys bringing different perspectives together, embedding stakeholder involvement into every stage of planning and decision-making. Now, she’s excited to focus on NHS England’s OpenSAFELY service, using innovative approaches to make PPIE a central part of its mission.
