Do You Know a UK Person Aged 100 or Over? We Want to Learn Your Story.
According to latest data, 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 number of male centenarians has grown by 200% from 910 to 3,100. During the identical period, the count of women aged 100 or over nearly doubled from 7,400 to 13,600.
We are keen to receive stories from centenarians, their relatives or close ones, about what it has been like to live through the past century’s transformative changes and shifts.
