You may be able to dial into this number directly via SIP.
How? Well it MAY be listed as an E number. I don't know how the
Draytel works but if you are able to set your dial plan such that it
includes <:@sipbroker.com> - no username or password required, then IF
it is an Enum then it will route via sipbroker. If it is not it will
route normally. If this is a specific 056 number that you wish to call
the recipient could make it an Enum and then, normally, it would be
accessible via SIP - unless BT have some sort of block on it.
To understand how all this works checkout

SEPARATE from all this, there isn't a sipbroker access number for BT
voice . Obviously BT want their customers to be restricted in their
SIP calls - one good reason NOT to go with BT
There is one, however, for bt.net whatever that service is. The web
site simply states "BT Global Services: IP Services" .
It has a sip server address of sip.btsip.bt.net
