Are You a UK Person Aged 100 or Over? We'd Love to Hear From You.
Based on recent figures, the population of centenarians in the UK has increased twofold from 8,300 in 2004 to 16,600 in 2024.
From 2004 and 2024, the number of male individuals reaching 100 has tripled from 910 to 3,100. Over the identical timeframe, the amount of female individuals reaching 100 increased by nearly 100% from 7,400 to 13,600.
We are eager to listen to individuals who have reached 100, their loved ones or companions, about what it has been like to bear witness to the past century’s transformative changes and shifts.
