Venue Description

We are a Christian community seeking to discover the heart of God in the heart of the city of Birmingham. Through prayer, worship and reading the Bible we endeavour to find ways to live out our faith in service to those in need. St. Martin's is a wonderful example of Victorian gothic architecture situated in the commercial centre of Birmingham. Please come in for worship throughout the week, to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city, to sit, relax, pray and wander around. Or to enjoy a tea and cake in our independent Tea Lounge. We also have meeting rooms available for hire.

Accessibility

The main entrance of the church has step free access with automatic glass doors. The main body of the church is accessible via a short, small ramp. To access the Tea Lounge, toilets or our meeting rooms from the church there is a short flight of stairs (with handrail) and an open lift for wheelchair users. There is another entrance into the building opposite Wagamama's which requires the door to be pulled open. There is either a short flight of stairs or a gradual ramp as you enter. Our meeting rooms are accessible via stairs or a lift.

Awards List

St. Martin's is a Church of England parish church in the Diocese of Birmingham. We have a Certificate of Excellence 2014 from TripAdvisor and a five star award for food hygiene from the city council.

Toilets

The disabled toilet is situated next to the Tea Lounge café. The toilet is accessible for both electronic and manual wheelchair users. There is a left hand grab rail by the toilet. There are various handrails and a low sink. Due to vandalism, in order to gain access to the toilet, please speak to a member of staff who will let you in.

Staff

When the church is open there is always a Facilities Officer on duty (identified by wearing a name badge and a blue shirt/jumper). It is their responsibility to look after those that come in and offer assistance to those in need. If you would like any further help please speak to one of them.
