The Phone Box

In January 2020, GCF applied under the "BT Adopt a Kiosk" scheme for the decommissioned BT telephone box at the bottom of Station Road. 

By May 2020 we had been granted ownership of the box, which was in desperate need of repair to the door and a lick of paint.

The box was restored in March 2021 and it was agreed that it should be used to house a second defibrillator for the village.

In December 2022 the defibrillator was installed, and by January 2023 we were able to report that the project is finally complete.

The defibrillator is sited within a cabinet, is registered with the emergency services and is checked weekly. Training on using the defibrillator was delivered by the Community Heartbeat Trust  in February 2023.

GCF has an annual support agreement with Community Heartbeat Trust.
