Based on recent data, 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 number of men aged 100 or over has grown by 200% from 910 to 3,100. Over the identical timeframe, the number of female individuals reaching 100 nearly doubled from 7,400 to 13,600.

We are excited to listen to individuals who have reached 100, their family or close ones, about what it has been like to experience the past century’s transformative changes and developments.
