**Coleridge and his stance against slavery in the**

**further afield. In 2020-21 State of Trust was**
**successful in raising funds from MHCLG via**
**Near Neighbours (formerly Church Urban**

**year of 'Remembering Windrush', including**
**live performances, new music composition,**

**provided a platform for many emerging and**
**established artists, particularly Black and**
**ethnic minority artists. State of Trust’s**
**support has influenced the skills and career**
**development of artist beneficiaries. In 2020-**
**21: 1) the Where Is Home? project provided**
**opportunities for artist beneficiaries to pass**
**on skills and knowledge and to deliver a**
**programme of learning to mixed migrant and**
**indigenous communities in West Somerset**
**through schools’ workshops and visits. As a**
**result, local children and young people**
**learned empathy with others of different**
**backgrounds. The wider benefit to society is**
**improved race relations and social cohesion;**
**2) the Coleridge Unbound project provided an**
**opportunity for artist beneficiaries to examine**
**the work of Coleridge as an abolitionist and to**
**respond creatively through choreography and**
**music. Via meetings with local community**
**groups and workshops in schools, local people**
**including children got to learn about their**
**own local history in relation to S T Coleridge**
**and the transatlantic slave trade/abolition**
**movement. The wider benefit to society is**
**improved understanding of shared history and**
**greater community cohesion; 3) the**
**Remembering Windrush project allowed a**
**group of musicians and dancers including**
**original Windrush generation contributors to**
**create new music and choreography, to teach**
**about the Windrush Generation in schools**
**and colleges and to engage with many**
**hundreds of people in the form of live**
**performance, and online in the form of live**
**panel discussion and debate and online**
**classes. The wider benefit to society is**
**increased knowledge of the Windrush**
**Generation, and of Britain’s relationship with**
**the Caribbean and Caribbean culture, thus**
**aiding community cohesion and integration;**
**4) the Cane Warriors project, although only in**
