All the references look like paid advertisements to me. This article is very suspicious. It was created by an account that was dormant for 2 years prior to its creation. Looks like paid editing. Vanjagenije (talk) 19:18, 9 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The references don't look like paid advertisements, but some of them may not be independent. The local news reference seems to contain some independent coverage but the indication of notability only from local coverage is not enough. HuffPost UK appears to be a blog page and I'm not sure of the independence of other sources; better sources may be needed. Peter James (talk) 18:44, 15 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
