Increase funding to prevent coastal erosion

What the petition asks
We would like the Government to increase funding to prevent coastal erosion. We want local councils to be able to access funds so that they can protect coastlines with sea defences.
The East of the UK has some of the fastest eroding coastline in Europe. How far is the government willing to let those be eaten away? People are losing their homes and businesses to it because of what we believe is inadequate action.
