Original Note:
The Court of Appeal has ruled that breaking a car window to save a child can constitute a defence to criminal damage. Thus, evidence of this would be admissible: para 45 of https://www.judiciary.uk/judgments/attorney-generals-reference-no-1-of-2023/ Protest is not a defence to non-trivial criminal damage, so evidence of this isn't admissible. https://www.judiciary.uk/judgments/attorney-generals-reference-no-1-of-2022/
