Overview
Carrie-Anne Ridsdale (Carrie), who presents publicly as Jayne Price alleges ongoing malicious communications and harassment by multiple individuals and groups, including serious accusations against a charity founder, but these claims lack independent verification and are part of a prolonged dispute.
From early 2022, Carrie has consistently framed communications directed at her and her operation as malicious, often attributing them to jealousy or targeted harassment. By early 2024, she publicly reported individuals such as Anita Williams to the police for malicious communication and described police involvement in investigating cyber attacks and malicious websites. Throughout 2024 and 2025, Carrie escalated accusations, naming specific individuals and groups, including Hayley Thomas, founder of the Helping Caring Team charity, alleging that they orchestrated malicious complaints and websites against her. These claims included assertions that the council and police were aware and involved in investigations, though no independent evidence supports these allegations. Carrie also expressed personal distress, including suicidal ideation linked to the alleged malicious websites.
In 2025, Carrie-Anne Ridsdale frequently accused others of breaching malicious communication laws, threatening legal action, and reporting ongoing harassment and stalking. She claimed to have meetings with councils about malicious complaints and urged followers to counteract complaints made by Hayley Thomas and others. Carrie also asserted that police files were open on individuals for malicious communications and harassment. Despite these claims, official records and the case brief do not corroborate the existence of formal investigations or legal actions against the named individuals or groups.
Throughout 2026, Carrie continued to allege malicious activity, including identity theft, manipulation of photographs, and physical stalking and attacks. She reported arrests and bail statuses of individuals involved in what she described as a malicious group targeting her operation. Carrie also acknowledged support from followers and law enforcement access to evidence collected against these groups. However, many of these claims remain unverified outside Carrie-Anne Ridsdale's own statements.
Carrie's accusations against Hayley Thomas, a publicly honoured and registered charity trustee, include claims of malicious reporting to authorities and controlling a malicious website. These serious allegations are unsupported by official records and contradict the documented legitimacy and recognition of Hayley Thomas and her charity. Similarly, accusations against other named individuals and landlords involved in the dispute are presented solely as Carrie's allegations without independent corroboration.
The dispute involves a complex interplay of public accusations, counter-complaints, and claims of malicious communications, with Carrie positioning herself as a victim of coordinated harassment. The evidence shows a pattern of sustained antagonism and legal threats but lacks independent verification of Carrie-Anne Ridsdale's claims of criminal conduct by others. Carrie's own admissions of distress and the involvement of police in some capacity are noted, but the absence of corroborating official investigations or outcomes tempers the credibility of the broader allegations.
In summary, Carrie's narrative presents a prolonged conflict characterised by mutual accusations of malicious communications and harassment. While Carrie alleges serious wrongdoing by named individuals and groups, including a registered charity founder, these claims remain unsubstantiated by external evidence. The case highlights the challenges of verifying allegations in complex interpersonal disputes involving social media, legal threats, and community organisations.
