Hi all,

I've just made a request to the Scottish Ambulance Service. I'll let you
know about their answer.

I checked the website that Dave mentioned (h
ttp://www.heartsafe.org.uk/AED-Locations
<http://www.heartsafe.org.uk/AED-Locations>) and it appears that only few
AEDs are mapped, e.g. by comparison with this 2014 map in Edinburgh:
