We'll be back with our usual mix of news, sport, travel and weather from 08:00 on Tuesday, but keep an eye out here for more updates this evening. 

Redditch MP Karen Lumley is to step down at the next election due to ill health, she has announced.

The Conservative had an operation in October and suffered a relapse at the beginning of the year, which forced her to stay away from Westminster. 

In a statement, she said it had been a "huge honour" to represent the town that had been her home for the last 20 years and was "immensely grateful" to all those she had met during that time.

A £1m investment in body-worn video cameras for West Mercia officers will help victims, prevent crimes and reduce complaints against police, John Campion, crime commissioner says.

Forty six officers in Malvern were the first to get the new kit earlier this month, with colleagues in Telford next before the remainder of the force.

Mr Campion said he'd seen them in use and expects the cameras - first introduced to police a decade ago - to provide increased transparency and reassure the public.

The cameras can dramatically reduce the number of complaints against officers, Cambridge University researched has found.

Complaints by members of the public against 2,000 officers across four UK forces and two US police departments, fell by 93% over 12 months compared with the year before.

It's a huge weekend for Worcester City fans as they wait to find out if the club will be relegated from the National League North. 

City need at least a draw against champions AFC Fylde to have any chance of survival, but if nearest rivals Gainsborough win they will be down. 

The team currently play in Bromsgrove after moving out of St George's Lane, its home for 108 years, in April 2013.  

Seats, signs and the turf from the pitch at the former stadium were subsequently offered for sale to fans.

It's deadline time to put in a pitch to be the 2021 City of Culture - and Hereford is one of 11 contenders.

The council says it would put on a year-long party of "amazing events and festivals in our communities for everyone to access", and would ensure every town, village and hamlet is included in its plans.

But are the county's rolling hills and abundant hedgerows making it stand out against other cities for the wrong or the right reasons?

Read what the BBC's Nick Higham discovered when he visited to find out more.

There's also be more on tonight's Midlands Today at 18:30 with Abigail Appleton, a member of the bid team, and representatives from other cities taking part.

Gary Gold, new director of rugby at Worcester Warriors, will be hoping his team can keep up their recent good run of form that's kept them in the Premiership.

He admits Newcastle isn't "an easy place to go" but he doesn't want "so much good" to go to waste.

"I know the big thing was staying up this season, but 11th is still a bit embarrassing and we have an atrocious away record too," he says.

"Newcastle is not an easy place to go. I know that from first-hand experience. The job they have done up there is incredible and they are always going to be competitive at Kingston Park."

Kick-off is at 20:00 tonight - listen to BBC local radio or get live text commentary on the BBC Sport website.
