Coastal Communities Fund for the South West

We've just had the 'stronger towns fund' or something like that, which has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with Brexit:
Futures Forum: Brexit: and the Stronger Towns Fund

And there's the annual bung to 'coastal communities': 
Futures Forum: Coastal Communities Fund and the South West

Which is yet another fund graciously bestowed by central government upon lowly local government:
Coastal communities - GOV.UK

This year's has been announced - and a couple of pieces of the pie goes to the South West:
£15m boost for coastal communities in the South West - Radio Exe
Pirate FM - News - Cornish coastal community projects get share of £15.4m
Coastal Communities funding for Weymouth Quay Regeneration Project | Dorset Echo
Government £2.7m for new North Devon Leisure Centre and Northam Burrows Centre | Barnstaple, Bideford and Ilfracombe News - North Devon Gazette

A more serious endeavour was put together by the Lords' Regenerating Seaside Towns Committee last October:
Futures Forum: Regenerating Seaside Towns: parliamentary committee calls for evidence

The Vision Group made a submission:
Vision Group sends in report to House of Lords committee on “Regenerating seaside towns and communities”
Vision Group report published by House of Lords committee on “Regenerating seaside towns and communities”
