The scheme, which provides accommodation for up to six rough sleepers at a time, is provided by Turning Point and a report last year said it was having a "positive impact on the quality of people's lives".Work on the third phase of a sea wall defence scheme will resume this spring, the Environment Agency (EA) has said.

The new defences, spanning almost three miles of coastline, are being installed at Stallingborough, between Immingham and Grimsby in North East Lincolnshire.The agency said the works will help reduce the flood risk for 2,400 properties on this section of the coast for at least 25 years.The project will require 100,000 tonnes of rock and is expected to cost £29m in total, according to the

The Government has confirmed another £7m tranche of the overall budget for what it describes as "essential maintenance".An EA spokesperson said: "From Spring 2025, the main outfall improvements will recommence at Oldfleet Drain and New Cut Drain, near Grimsby.

"These will build flood resilience by improving sustainability and maintenance accessibility into the future."
