Going red to save lives!

Witney Rotary Evening Group restores a phone box in Market Square, Witney. Home to a new defibrillator.

Making it look like new!

The Witney Rotary Evening Group undertook to restore a phone box in Witney Market Square as home for a defibrillator.

One of the phone boxes has not held a telephone for some time so with the kind permission of BT we were allowed to use it to host a defibrillator - but first the box needed a bit of a touch up.  So over a weekend Claire, Mandy, Neil, Stuart and his son Ryan cleaned it, prepared it, undercoated and glossed it ready for the device to be installed in the next few weeks.
