Gmail accounts

sorry if this has been asked before.

I'm looking at changing my gmail email for a better address.

Question is how can I update/ create a new account and update the rest of the google based services so I don't loose my data for the following services.

google business
YouTube
Google drive
Callander
Google plus

Or would I have to go through the painful process of resetting up everything.

Any help would be appreciated.

Unfortunately, you can't change the email address as far as I can see. You will just have to setup a new one.

i believe you can add an email address to an existing account and then use that to login

You can make Gmail forward emails to another email address if that helps.

You can actually export personal data from Gmail. (Calendars, Emails, Contacts, Etc.) and them import them into a different account. It's don't through the settings page > Export.
