Do You Know a UK Person Aged 100 or Over? We'd Love to Hear From You.
Based on recent figures, the population of individuals reaching 100 in the UK has increased twofold from 8,300 in 2004 to 16,600 in 2024.
From 2004 and 2024, the figure of male centenarians has grown by 200% from 910 to 3,100. Over the same timeframe, the number of women aged 100 or over increased by nearly 100% from 7,400 to 13,600.
We are keen to receive stories from individuals who have reached 100, their family or close ones, about what it has been like to experience the past century’s seismic events and shifts.
