Batley neighbourhood policing team wants young people aged between 13 and 18 to draw pictures of graffiti-art or tagging on paper.

Images should be sent to: Graffiti Project, Batley Police Station, Market Place, Batley, WF17 5AA with your name, age, address and contact details, to arrive no later than May 9.
