That's all from me for today.

We'll be back on Monday with all the latest news, sport, travel and weather from 08:00.

Have a wonderful weekend and before I go, here are five things we didn't know when we woke up this morning:

• Volunteers could be used to patrol ports on the Humber and along the coast as the Border Force becomes increasingly stretched.
• Plans to create a glass lift and viewing platform on the Humber Bridge is in doubt.
• Prank takeaway orders are costing firms in Grimsby and Cleethorpes money, according to Humberside Police
• There are plans to turn a former church in Hull into a new community centre
• A campaign has begun to find the owner of an old photograph found on the floor of a supermarket in Barton-upon-Humber

The Mayor of Crowle has told the BBC that the town council tax precept will have to go up or services will need to be cut to make up for the money stolen by former town clerk Katy Fowler.

Fowler was sentenced to eight months in prison for stealing more than £23,000 during a four-year period.

Coun Deborah Middleton said that colleagues have been left sickened and angry that someone in a trusted position abused their power.

She also said that the criminality of Fowler's actions will have a lasting effect on the community.

The UK Powerhouse study, produced by Irwin Mitchell and the Centre for Economics and Business Research (CEBR) found that that Hull, Rotherham and Wakefield are the fastest growing economies in Yorkshire.

The study follows figures from the Office of National Statistics (ONS) which shows Hull’s gross value added growth rose by five per cent, well above the regional and national average.

Hornsea will benefit from £10m worth of funding, according to the leader of East Riding of Yorkshire Council leader.

Councillor Parnaby says it's about retaining and improving services.

A former town clerk at Crowle and Ealand Town Council in North Lincolnshire has been sentenced to eight months in prison for stealing £23,428 from the council.

Katy Fowler, 44, took the money over a four-year period when she worked there as a clerk doing administrative tasks and looking after their finances.

She was fired by the council at the end of March 2017 when members began asking questions after they felt they were paying too much for CCTV cameras.

Fowler had told them the council needed to pay £600 every month to maintain these cameras.

Actually that £600 only needed to be paid every three months and the rest was going into Fowler’s bank account. She also kept call out fees and some one-off payments.

Plans to renovate a landmark derelict trawler company's building in Hull have been submitted.

The Lord Line building, built in 1949, has stood empty on St Andrew's Dock for a number of years and is on the council's list, external of architecturally or historically significant buildings.

The plans, which include a new restaurant, bar, office, and roof terrace, have been put forward by the building's owners, Manor Property Group.

Plans to demolish the former Lord Line building were rejected by Hull City Council last November.

Councillor Martin Mancey has told the BBC the proposals don't address a number of safety concerns the council has about the site.

The authority will continue to pursue Manor Property Group over those concerns, he added.

Volunteers could be used to patrol ports on the Humber and along the coast as the Border Force becomes increasingly stretched.

The Home Office is understood to be considering a trial at Immingham, one of the UK's busiest ports.

The government says the volunteers would complement, not replace, paid staff and they're talking to the police to see how they use volunteers to complement their staff.

Labour and Hull East MP Karl Turner says it's like something from the TV programme Dad's Army.

Ticket machines have been stolen from two car parks in Grimsby.

Three machines were taken from two car parks in the town over the Christmas period, according to police.

All the machines have been found but were badly damaged and all the money they contained had been taken.

New ticket machines should be back in the Duchess Street and Garden Street car parks on Monday.

Anyone with information about the thefts is being asked to contact police.

A Scunthorpe couple are using their spare time to making dresses for children in Africa.

They're part of a charity called Dress a Girl Around the World.

David and Mary Hogg who are both in their 90s have already made that dream a reality for 70 youngsters.

Mary Hogg explains why she got involved in the campaign:

The Humber Bridge Board says it still has plans to create a glass lift and viewing platform on top of the Hessle tower, despite claims from East Riding of Yorkshire Council leader Stephen Parnaby that the plans were not financially viable.

Mr Parnaby has told the BBC that the plans by the board were not financially viable and the estimated number of people who would use it was optimistic.

In a statement the Humber Bridge Board said that they were aware of the comments made by Mr Parnaby.

They say they're developing a business plan and exploring funding options for the Humber Bridge visitor attraction.

It will be a mostly dry afternoon with sunny spells and light winds expected:

The top stories from across East Yorkshire and northern Lincolnshire so far today include:

• Plans to create a glass lift on the Humber Bridge suffer a setback after East Riding of Yorkshire Council leader says the plans aren't feasible

• A company which wanted to drill for oil in North Lincolnshire says it's "disappointed" by a decision to refuse its application

British tennis number two, Tickton's Kyle Edmund, had an injury scare as he pushed world number three Grigor Dimitrov to three sets in the quarter-finals of the Brisbane International.

The 22-year-old needed treatment after he went over on his right ankle at 4-4 in the decider.

He was able to resume but went on to lose 6-3 6-7 (3-7) 6-4.

Edmund will now have the injury assessed before 2017's opening Grand Slam, which starts on 15 January.

With Andy Murray already out with a hip problem, Edmund is due to be the highest-ranked Briton in the men's singles.

The Post Office has broken promises it made to provide a mobile service after closing rural branches, according to residents of two villages in East Yorkshire.

People in Barmston and Rudston say the visiting service has been unreliable and they've been left without any post office for months.

In a statement, the Post Office has apologised to customers and says it's making every effort to ensure services are restored:

Campaigners plan to turn a derelict church in Hull into a community centre.

The building, on Beverley Road, has been abandoned for a number of years, but The Friends of Trafalgar Street Church want it to become a drop-in centre or even a wedding venue.

Here's what the church looks like today, scenes which the Friends hope will soon be a thing of the past:

A company which wanted to drill for oil in North Lincolnshire says it's disappointed by a decision to refuse its application.

A government planning inspector raised concerns about the potential impact on local water and nearby residents in Wressle, near Scunthorpe.

Egdon Resources, an oil and gas production business, says the decision is "highly disappointing".

A study commissioned by Egdon Resources in 2016 found Wressle was sitting on reserves of about two million barrels of recoverable oil.

North Lincolnshire Council's planning committee has since turned down two planning applications to turn it into a commercial oil production site, with the government now dismissing an appeal.

Plans to create a glass lift on the Humber Bridge look unlikely to go ahead after the leader of East Riding of Yorkshire Council said the plans were not feasible.

Stephen Parnaby has told the BBC that the plans by the Humber Bridge Board are not financially viable and the estimated number of people who would use it was optimistic.

The proposals would have allowed visitors to travel under the bridge at Hessle in a glass gondola before changing to the lift which would have raised them 510ft to the top of the north tower.

Proposals for a visitor centre and glass lift were originally rejected in 2016 due to concerns over a 60,000sq ft office block which was part of the project, but councillors said they'd consider a revised plan.

Mr Parnaby believes there still needs to be some form of visitor attraction at the Humber Bridge to encourage tourists:

Prank takeaway orders are costing firms in Grimsby and Cleethorpes money, according to Humberside Police.

Police in Cleethorpes say somebody is ordering take-outs and having the food delivered to people who don't want them.

Officers are now telling takeaways to make sure orders are genuine and payments are being made.

Gwen Clarke, from Michael's indian restaurant in Thornton, is one of those affected:
