Based on latest data, the population of people aged 100 and above in the UK has grown by 100% 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. Over the same period, the amount of female individuals reaching 100 nearly doubled from 7,400 to 13,600.
