Do You Know a UK Centenarian? We'd Love to Learn Your Story.
Based on recent statistics, the population of people aged 100 and above in the UK has increased twofold from 8,300 in 2004 to 16,600 in 2024.
Between 2004 and 2024, the total of male individuals reaching 100 has grown by 200% from 910 to 3,100. Over the identical years, the count of women aged 100 or over almost doubled from 7,400 to 13,600.
We are eager 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 seismic events and shifts.
