Do You Know a British Person Aged 100 or Over? We Want to Hear From You.
Based on latest statistics, the population of centenarians in the UK has doubled 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 years, the amount of female individuals reaching 100 increased by nearly 100% from 7,400 to 13,600.
We are excited 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.
