There's a slim chance that you might be able to bring the battery back to life. A common cause of failure is a battery kept at less than 80% of full charge 9storage, short journeys, etc) the electrolyte concentrates at the bottom of the plates and this is where an Optimate or similar helps to prolong battery life, it keeps them topped up.
Try shaking the battery or - taking precautions - tipping it over a few times. I remember decades ago draining the acid out of a dead MGB 6-volt battery, washing it our with distilled water and putting the acid back. After a charge, the battery worked.
