Peace PODs

A Peace POD is a room your brain can trust.

A Peace POD (Practical Operating Device) is a physical regulation space paired with the FYIP app. Think sensory-safe room, calming lighting, tactile tools and a tablet that walks the user through a short daily brain-training ritual.

  • A physical, sensory-safe space plus the FYIP app on a tablet.
  • Indoor rooms or outdoor garden studios, sized for a family, classroom or workplace.
  • Guided daily rituals: check-in, regulate, refocus, in under 10 minutes.

For UK Schools

Creating Quiet Calming Rooms for UK Schools

Our bespoke calming rooms give primary, secondary, SEN and alternative-provision settings a dedicated, sensory-safe space where students can self-regulate, reduce anxiety and return to learning ready. Designed with SENCOs, pastoral leads and headteachers, each room is built around the children and young people who will actually use it.

Every calming room is stocked with neuroaffirming tools — soft warm-white lighting, natural textures, aromatherapy, sensory items and greenery — chosen to lower nervous-system arousal within minutes. Whether it's a breakout corner off a corridor, a repurposed classroom or an outdoor garden pod on the playground, we specify the build, layout and contents so staff have a predictable, calming space that works from day one.

Calming rooms support autistic and ADHD students, young people managing school anxiety, trauma-informed pastoral care and staff wellbeing rooms. They also reduce classroom disruption, protect learning time for peers and give teachers a clear, structured place to send a dysregulated student — helping them find their inner peace and get back to lessons.

  • Self-regulationA predictable, low-stimulation environment students can use before overwhelm tips into crisis.
  • Reduced anxietyWarm lighting, sensory tools and calming scents that measurably lower nervous-system arousal.
  • SEN & inclusion readyDesigned with SENCOs — neuroaffirming, trauma-informed and safe for autistic and ADHD students.
  • Indoor or outdoorClassroom breakout rooms, corridor pods or weatherproofed garden calming rooms on-site.

Peace POD FAQs

Everything you need to know about Peace PODs

Real answers to the questions we get most from families, schools and workplaces configuring a Peace POD.

What is a Peace POD?

A Peace POD is a bespoke, psychologically safe sensory space designed for regulation, reset and recovery. It combines aromatherapy, sensory tools, greenery, calming lighting and soft textures inside a purpose-built indoor or outdoor pod — so children, adults, staff or students can step out of overwhelm and return to a calm baseline.

How much does a Peace POD cost?

Peace PODs start from £4,759 for the small (1-person) build, £5,039 for the medium (1–2 people, most popular) and £5,599 for the large (family or shared space) Stack package. Hand-picked items (aromatherapy, sensory tools, lighting, greenery) are added on top; a full estimate is shown live as you configure your build.

Can I put a Peace POD in a classroom or school?

Yes. Peace PODs are widely used in schools, SEN provisions and alternative provision settings as regulation rooms, sensory retreats and staff wellbeing spaces. We help you choose the right size, whether an indoor breakout POD or an outdoor garden POD, and stock it with age-appropriate, neuroaffirming items.

What's the difference between an indoor and outdoor Peace POD?

Indoor PODs are designed for homes, classrooms, workplaces and healthcare settings — soft-lit, quiet and warm. Outdoor PODs are weatherproofed for gardens, playgrounds and campus spaces, with materials chosen to handle UK weather while keeping the calming interior feel.

Who are Peace PODs for?

Peace PODs are used by autistic and ADHD children and adults, families supporting neurodivergent loved ones, schools, universities, workplaces and healthcare settings. They also support sensitive contexts including OCD, post-natal depression, bereavement, cancer care and dementia — we tailor each build to the people using it.

Do you deliver and install Peace PODs across the UK?

Yes. We deliver and install Peace PODs across the UK. Once you send your build we confirm pricing, delivery timelines and installation details within one working day.

Can I pay a deposit instead of the full amount?

Yes. You can enquire only, secure your build with a 20% deposit, or pay in full — the option is available inside the configurator. We send a secure payment link with the confirmed quote.

Can I customise what goes inside my Peace POD?

Every item is hand-picked by you. Start from a curated preset (for example ADHD focus, sensory calm or workplace reset) or build fully custom — choosing aromatherapy roll-ons, sensory tools, faux greenery, warm-white lighting and soft textures that suit the person using the POD.

What is the difference between a sensory pod and a therapy pod?

A sensory pod focuses on sensory input and regulation, with lighting, texture, scent and sound tools that help someone move out of overwhelm. A therapy pod is a private, low-arousal room used for 1-1 sessions, counselling, pastoral conversations or staff supervision. A Peace POD can be configured as either, or as both, depending on how your school, workplace or care setting plans to use the space.

How do I create a calming room in a UK school with limited space?

Most schools start with a small or medium modular Peace POD placed in a spare classroom, corridor alcove, library corner or outdoor grounds. The small build needs roughly the footprint of a reading corner, so you can create a dedicated calming room without losing a whole teaching space. We survey the area with you and recommend the size and layout that fits.

Are Peace PODs suitable for SEN and SENCO provision?

Yes. Peace PODs are used as SEN regulation rooms, sensory retreats and de-escalation spaces in mainstream schools, specialist provisions and alternative provision. Contents are neuroaffirming and age-appropriate, and we can align the setup with your SEN support plans, EHCP outcomes and safeguarding requirements.

How long does it take to install a Peace Pod?

Once your build is confirmed, most indoor Peace PODs are delivered and installed within a few weeks, with outdoor garden PODs taking a little longer due to groundwork. We confirm exact delivery and installation timelines with your quote, within one working day of your enquiry.

Can workplaces use a Peace POD as a quiet room or wellbeing space?

Yes. Workplaces use Peace PODs as quiet rooms, decompression spaces and neuroinclusive wellbeing rooms, supporting reasonable adjustments, reducing sensory overload in open-plan offices and giving staff somewhere private to reset between meetings.

A note on Peace PODs

Peace PODs support work across sensitive areas including OCD, post-natal depression, bereavement, cancer care and dementia. We tailor deployment carefully in each setting. Talk to us if you'd prefer to discuss your build first.
