Converted Telephone Booths Used As Defibrillators

NorthSeaPoet-INGNorthSeaPoet-ING Posts: 895 ✭✭✭✭✭

In the UK, we have a number of red telephone booths. Some of these have been converted into free libraries or other things. Some even house a defibrillator. These are usually in little villages.

The red telephone booth is a British cultural icon, and some of the designs do have a historic value.

With these public access defibrillators, anyone can use them - absolutely no training required. As I understand it, and I could be wrong here, the public access defibs can be removed from their location and taken to wherever they're needed.

British Heart Foundation even have a page about public access defibs.

My question is, as they're publicly accessible and can be used by any member of the general public, would the ones that are housed in the red telephone booths be classified as blocking emergency services if the booth itself was submitted?
