Are You a UK Person Aged 100 or Over? We'd Love to Learn Your Story.
Based on recent figures, the number 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 men aged 100 or over has increased threefold from 910 to 3,100. During the identical timeframe, the count of female centenarians almost doubled from 7,400 to 13,600.
We are excited to listen to centenarians, their relatives or close ones, about what it has been like to experience the past century’s seismic events and developments.
