Enter a date of birth, sex and UK region below to see estimated healthy life expectancy and overall life expectancy, based on official Office for National Statistics figures.
This calculator is an estimate only. It applies published Office for National Statistics (ONS) life expectancy figures (2024) and healthy life expectancy figures (2022–2024 average) for your selected UK region and sex, interpolated across the standard ONS five-year age bands.
These statistics are calculated from population-wide averages using standard life table methodology. They describe a cross-section of society and carry no medical evidence or assessment for any individual — they take no account of your personal health, genetics, family history, occupation or lifestyle. On average, people with favourable genetics and a healthier lifestyle tend to live longer, and in better health, than these figures suggest; people with risk factors such as smoking, inactivity, obesity or long-term health conditions tend, on average, to fare worse than these figures suggest. Individual outcomes vary considerably in both directions.
This tool is provided for general interest and indicative planning only. It is not medical advice and not financial or pension advice, and should not be relied upon as the sole basis for any retirement, financial or health-related decision. Please speak to a qualified financial adviser and/or your GP for guidance specific to your circumstances.
