Architect, Eric Parry, presents the Project to HRH The Prince of Wales. www.kmphotos.com

Our Patron, the Prince of Wales, has said:

"Those who built the church in the 1720s were criticised for its great expense; two hundred and eighty years later, few capital investments have been so worthwhile. The church's openness to the world, its constant creativity and care of those in need, its international outlook and commitment to people of other faiths are of striking significance in our time.

Now St Martin's buildings urgently need to be restored, the spiritual completion to the re-working of Trafalgar Square. Eric Parry Architects have produced an intelligent and elegant solution to an unusually complex and sensitive architectural problem. This process has been supported through the involvement of my Foundation for the Built Environment and I am delighted to have been asked to be Patron of the campaign to realise this innovative scheme.

These bold plans will, I believe, equip St Martin's for service in the twenty-first century and beyond. In the very best sense, it is an act of faith on the part of what many consider London's parish church and the campaign is a most worthy one."
