York Art Gallery is "playing a round" with the notion of art.

The gallery's Doug Fishbone's Leisure Land Golf installation is a fully playable crazy golf course, with each hole designed and made by a different artist from the contemporary art world.

Apparently, visitors interacting with the pieces through playing a round of crazy golf can "engage with important cultural topics, including migration, global warming and globalisation".

The artworks ask visitors to "explore the histories and relationships between work, leisure, colonialism, tourism, information and economics", the gallery adds.

And if you don't feel you're fully appreciating these concepts, at least you get to have a bit of fun with a club and ball...

On average more than 4,000 people visited the gallery each day between February and May to see the biggest ever compilation of work by the Bradford-born artist.

If you want to feel fitter and happier, why not make nature and the countryside a bigger part of your life? That's the advice from the Yorkshire Wildlife Trust.

The trust is challenging people to make every day in June a "wild day", by either visiting rural areas or just taking more notice of green spaces and the creatures living in them.

The organisation's West Yorkshire director Caroline Thorogood says it's been proved that getting back to nature is good for us:

The 11 men and one woman were arrested after the incident on 31 October last year, and they each admitted charges of causing a public nuisance.
