Welcome to the safepod network
The SafePod Network (SPN) is a major research innovation in the UK to provide researchers with local access to administrative and other sensitive data for research purposes.
The main function of the SPN is the secure operation and management of a network of independent standardised safe settings (known as SafePods and SafePoints) which are based at higher education institutions across the UK. All SafePods and SafePoints operate under standardised policies and procedures and provide accredited researchers with access to their project data from Data Centres that have joined the SPN, which includes the Office for National Statistics and the UK Data Service.
The SafePod Network (SPN) is funded by the Economic and Social Research Council, which is part of UK Research and Innovation.
