Evidence
Claims are cheap. This page lists what I have done alongside the record that substantiates it — an award letter, a registry entry, a public issue, a signed director’s letter. If an item here cannot be evidenced, it should not be here.

Named in The Refract Foundation's account of Campfire Birmingham
The Refract Foundation published a write-up of Campfire Birmingham, a student-led game jam run with HackUK, naming me as one of two in-person mentors and concluding that Cyber Heroez CIC's involvement was "central to the success" of the event. Six teams shipped completed games; for many participants it was their first finished software project. In fairness: the piece was written by Oliver Potter, who runs programmes at Refract and whom we mentor — so it is a collaborator's account rather than an arm's-length one.
