Do You Know a British Person Aged 100 or Over? We'd Love to Learn Your Story.
According to recent statistics, the population of centenarians in the UK has grown by 100% from 8,300 in 2004 to 16,600 in 2024.
Between 2004 and 2024, the number of men aged 100 or over has tripled from 910 to 3,100. Over the identical years, the count of women aged 100 or over increased by nearly 100% from 7,400 to 13,600.
We are keen to listen to centenarians, their family or close ones, about what it has been like to live through the past century’s major happenings and changes.
