Life-saving equipment to treat cardiac arrest victims has been fitted into an unused phone box in an Argyll village.
The traditional red kiosk in Glendaruel now has a defibrillator machine which tells the user how to give treatment with step-by-step instructions.
The machine analyses the victim to determine if they are having a cardiac arrest.
If required, it delivers a powerful but controlled electric shock to restore normal heartbeat.
