The Government Digital Service

Visit Website

The Government Digital Service (GDS) is part of the Cabinet Office. Our job is to help departments transform government to meet citizen needs. We employ around 800 staff. Our main office is in Aldgate, London.

GDS leads the government’s digital function, helping departments build and support services that are digital by default, focused around the needs of the people we serve.

GDS was set up in 2011 as a business unit of the Cabinet Office, in response to Martha Lane Fox’s report, ‘Directgov 2010 and beyond: revolution not evolution’.
