Sky q signal won’t reach
I want to get sky in my outside bar, it's only 15m from the mini box in the kitchen but won't connect over WiFi. I'm with BT and have a strong signal.
would a sky q booster work alongside the BT internet by just boosting the signal between the boxes?

Possibly, but a booster is really intended to be mid way between source and client devices which typically isn't possible for that kind of set up.
BT Halo 3+ Ultrafast FTTP (500Mbs), BT Smart Hub 2

Suspect that's too great a distance for the Sky Q WiFi to reach.
Q boosters will boost Q box WiFi but I don't assume you can position one midway between the mini and your bar.
Best bet would be an External grade Ethernet cable from the mini.
