Petition Start dredging rivers regularly in the help of flood prevention.
Cumbria has suffered many bad floods over the last 13 years and it's time something was done. Flood defences only slow down the water but actually clearing the rivers of silt and debris would be more effective. Also allowing farmers to manage rivers flowing through their land.
