Do You Know a British Person Aged 100 or Over? We'd Love to Hear From You.
Based on recent figures, the population of people aged 100 and above in the UK has doubled from 8,300 in 2004 to 16,600 in 2024.
From 2004 and 2024, the total of male centenarians has grown by 200% from 910 to 3,100. Over the same period, the number of female centenarians nearly doubled from 7,400 to 13,600.
We are keen to receive stories from individuals who have reached 100, their relatives or friends, about what it has been like to live through the past century’s transformative changes and developments.
