Are You a British Centenarian? We Want to Hear From You.
Based on recent data, the population of people aged 100 and above in the UK has increased twofold from 8,300 in 2004 to 16,600 in 2024.
From 2004 and 2024, the figure of men aged 100 or over has tripled from 910 to 3,100. During the same timeframe, the count of female individuals reaching 100 nearly doubled from 7,400 to 13,600.
We are keen to listen to centenarians, their loved ones or friends, about what it has been like to experience the past century’s seismic events and changes.
