Are You a UK Centenarian? We'd Love to Hear From You.
Based on latest figures, the count 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 figure of male centenarians has increased threefold from 910 to 3,100. Over the identical timeframe, the count of female individuals reaching 100 increased by nearly 100% from 7,400 to 13,600.
We are eager to listen to those aged 100 or over, their family or close ones, about what it has been like to bear witness to the past century’s transformative changes and shifts.
