Do You Know a British Centenarian? We Want to Learn Your Story.

According to 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 number of male centenarians has tripled from 910 to 3,100. Over the identical timeframe, the amount of women aged 100 or over almost doubled from 7,400 to 13,600.

We are excited to hear from centenarians, their relatives or friends, about what it has been like to bear witness to the past centuryโ€™s seismic events and developments.
