WHO WE ARE

The Prince’s Regeneration Trust is one of The Prince's Charities of which HRH The Prince of Wales is President; 17 of the 19 charities in the group were founded personally by The Prince.

We aim to ensure that historic buildings at risk of demolition or decay are preserved, regenerated and re-used.

Buildings, like people and places, need to adapt to survive. Our projects give redundant buildings a viable and long-term future, which is often a catalyst for the wider regeneration of the communities in which they are located.

Through our research and education programme, we deliver conferences, workshops and publications, reaching much wider audiences than we can reach directly through our projects.

We work collaboratively in partnership with building owners, developers, community groups, local authorities and other public bodies to find appropriate and sustainable uses for historic buildings at risk.

We operate as an advisor, enabler, facilitator, fundraiser, partner and advocate. We also undertake some building preservation projects as principal, stepping in developer of last resort.

We work throughout the United Kingdom, focusing mainly on projects in socially and economically deprived areas where the benefit of regeneration will be the greatest.

Where possible, the Trust works with charities in The Prince of Wales's group of charities in areas such as the built environment, education, creativity, education, creativity, business and the community.
