Noël Martin (*1959, Jamaican born British), is a prominent Neo-Nazi victim who was attacked by German Neo-Nazis in 1996. He lives in Birmingham, England. At the time he was attacked he was one of the many British and Irish construction workers working in Germany.

On 16 June 1996 in Brandenburg, the former East Germany, he was attacked because of his dark skin by Neo-Nazis. A block of concrete was thrown through the windshield of his car and Martin's car veered off the road and struck a tree.[1]

Martin became a quadriplegic as a result of the attack, and requires 24-hour care. Having outlived his wife, he has announced his intention to seek assisted suicide, to take place in Berlin, as a result.[2] His first announcement, in 2006, set 23 June 2007 as the date of his suicide.[3] As of December 2007 he had made arrangements with a doctor through the Swiss organization Dignitas.[4]{{Update after|2013}}

A documentary film, The Finishing Line,[5]

about Martin, directed and produced by Estephan Wagner, was due to be shown on Channel 4 in August 2009. However, Martin objected to the inclusion of two scenes (referred to in court as the "hoisting" and "song" scenes), and sought an injunction against Channel 4 preventing them from broadcasting it. In November 2009, Mr Justice Eady rejected Martin's application.[6]
