A Minimum Digital Living Standard for UK Households in 2025: Full report
The Minimum Digital Living Standard (MDLS) is a benchmark, developed with members of the public, for what households need to feel digitally included. Read the full report.
We now have a single MDLS, developed through a series of deliberative discussion groups with working-age and pension-age households, as well as households with children, in urban and rural areas. Grounded in people’s lives, MDLS helps us focus on the holistic nature of digital inclusion and how we can work together to achieve this.

A version of this report is available to download on the right of this article. Alternatively, you can catch up on our webinar to hear what households say they need, and how you can use MDLS to shape policy, provision, products, and partnerships. The slides from the webinar are also available to download.
