Do You Know a British Person Aged 100 or Over? We'd Love to Hear From You.
Based on recent statistics, the number of people aged 100 and above in the UK has doubled from 8,300 in 2004 to 16,600 in 2024.
Between 2004 and 2024, the figure of male individuals reaching 100 has tripled from 910 to 3,100. During the same timeframe, the number of women aged 100 or over increased by nearly 100% from 7,400 to 13,600.
We are excited to hear from centenarians, their relatives or companions, about what it has been like to experience the past century’s major happenings and developments.
