Are You a British Centenarian? We'd Love to Hear From You.
According to latest figures, the population of individuals reaching 100 in the UK has increased twofold from 8,300 in 2004 to 16,600 in 2024.
Between 2004 and 2024, the figure of male individuals reaching 100 has tripled from 910 to 3,100. Over the identical years, the count of female centenarians increased by nearly 100% from 7,400 to 13,600.
We are eager to hear from centenarians, their family or friends, about what it has been like to bear witness to the past century’s seismic events and shifts.
