So we're in Blackwood shop this morning, guys. We've got a couple of jobs to do. They're gonna stay in Blackwood shop, and then I'll probably go over to Pontypool. We're looking to open Risca Roo Thursday. So Risca will be open Thursday.

I need volunteers that wanna come down. Blackwood, open all week. Pontypool, open all week. That's the plan. So, anyway, we're gonna answer some questions off the website this morning.

Oh, they must have been up all night. Must have been up all night uploading. No wonder they needed to deactivate some of that account. Right. So there was a, oh, she's claims to be helping, babies and children.

She's she bought a castle. Yeah. The castle didn't cost a thousand pound, and I I gotta be honest. I didn't update the status because it was so long ago. It took so long to get one of those castles.

It was a nightmare. It was 250 delivered. We bought it off one of the mothers in the end, so we helped a a family out. They gave us a receipt. That's been, recorded, you know, recorded, and I'm still not using my thing.

I'm using a toilet roll this morning. Oh, I need you to build that. It goes on my neck. Grumpy looks at it. He couldn't figure it figure it out at all.

Alright. Okay. So, yeah, the the castle is there for the children, the little people. You know the little people now? Yeah?

They are the children and the babies to play in. When I say it's my office, that's a joke, but I don't think you guys can actually take a joke. And a lot of our mothers can't afford to take their children to play centers and, you know, these soft plays anymore. And I I think one of our grandmothers a volunteer for her, said she has to pay a pound to sit there and supervise her own children after paying to go into the, the play place, you know. She's gotta pay a pound, and that doesn't include a cup of tea or anything.

So I think the mothers of Pontypool would say tell you that that castle is very sought after and everybody wants one, including Jan herself, including one of my volunteers who I refuse to sell it to that actually bought a blue one, which I'm very jealous I don't want, which she's actually got in her living room. So I think the children speaking on behalf of the babies and children that used the castle that only cost £250 off another mother that was selling it, with a receipt that's been filed. I think that was a good purchase because I think all the children like it, including myself. It's nice to go in there sometimes, lie in there and decompress. So there's a bit of waffle on here again now.

Waffle, waffle, waffle, waffle, waffle, waffle, waffle, waffle. Yeah. You waffle, waffle, waffle, waffle, waffle, waffle, waffle, waffle, waffle, waffle, waffle, waffle, waffle, waffle. It just goes on and on and on. Look how obsessed you are.

You're obsessed. You're obsessed. Hang on now. I wanna get down to the comments. Come on.

Scroll. Scroll. Oh, there it is. Charity funds to purchase the castle. I may have actually used my own money for that.

I'll have to check because I bought it so long ago now. Where's the comments? Oh, it's it's not my phone, see, so let's go back to these comments. I got out of this because there's so many comments. Questions that need to be addressed.

Right. Arthur Barlow, get a grip. Right? That's the same person as doing the website. You you know?

I mean, Arthur Barlow, get a grip. You really need to. Here we are. Waffling on oh, here she is now. This is wax melt, woman.

Yeah. This is yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Can you contact me?

Because I'm being harassed and I've got autism and all the rest of it. I'm sorry, love, but I think me, my volunteers, and the babies and the children, and everybody involved in, you know, just being harmed by your website are actually more vulnerable than you. So you are actually picking on vulnerable adults. And myself and my volunteers have screenshots dating back nearly two years of stuff that you've put using Natalie's wax melts on Facebook because you're obsessed. Okay?

It's not a different person every week. We're not picking on a different person every week. What we're doing is we are unraveling the people behind the website and the people behind the complaints, and it's all one little group that's all connected. So it's not, oh god, she's pulling up somebody else's. Oh, she's pulling up somebody else that week.

Yeah. Oh, and thank you for putting that Peter stole a load of money and everything from the shop on on Moravio because, yeah, I want that to go viral because he's still at Witherspoon's banging on about how horrible we are. And that's that's nonsense. And I spoke to Witherspoon's, and Witherspoon's staff are gonna speak to him as well because he is a complete fantasist. So thank you for that.

Right. I think we're on the questions now. Let me put the glasses on. Let's concentrate right now. Right.

Here we go. Here we go. Right. Right. I want my questions answered.

I'm hoping she can probably answer these questions to her 72 followers. Yes. All of whom be haters. All of whom will be haters the minute she's proven what she's doing. Okay.

Why are you trading under somebody else's name and hiding your true identity? You are using the identity of a dead woman. That's sick. You need professional help. I'm not using the identity of a dead woman.

Jane Price is my registered legal name. Okay? I have middle names and and and other things as well. Right? And I don't need to give you that information.

Okay? My trading name, which I have to display in the shops and give to the council, is Jane Price, and they're happy with that. Otherwise, they'd arrested me. And so would they arrested me if I was stealing a dead person's identity, which I'm not. Why are you claiming to be a charity but not registered as a charity or a food bank?

We are registered three oh, I thought it was blood then. It's a red pen. I thought, oh my god. I cut myself. We are registered as three food banks.

Oh, you wanna pop. We are registered as three food banks, one in Risga, one in Blackwood, and one in Pontypo. We were also registered as a food bank in Brimau. We are also a registered baby bank under three councils with three with three different councils. Yes.

So we are registered, so you're incorrect. And this is the problem with you, Natalie, is that you've got a narrative in your head and you're running with it and you're sticking with it and you're not researching it and you're calling us fraudsters and we're not. We're registered. We're registered to trade by the council. The council know where you, the council pop out and see us and have a good old laugh at some of your complaints.

Right? They come out and see us. They were regulated. We get the community police pop in, seeing if we're alright. We've had police officers pop in and see if we're alright because they know the abuse we're getting.

Okay? You people like you are putting out false narratives. You're not a registered this. You're not a re we are registered. We cannot operate as a food bank or serve tea and coffee if we're not registered, and we are.

So you need to make a public apology for that, I think, because you've got it wrong again. Like, you've got my details wrong again. The other thing is I'm not saying I'm a charity. When we first started, we called ourselves Jane's Baby Bank and Charity Shop because I knew I wasn't allowed to say Jane's Baby Bank charity because I wasn't a registered charity. I didn't have loads of information about charity then.

I was just starting out as myself. We quickly found out that people didn't like the word charity shop. The they were we we were reported to the Charity Commission, and and they said, well, there's nothing we can do because you ain't calling yourself a charity. It's an charity shop. So it's up to trading standards and the council and HMRC to define whether you are a charity shop.

And are the purposes of the fundraising, all the staff, is it going for charitable purposes, which it was. And that was a great area for the council and the charity commission. Well, it wasn't so much for the charity commission because they were, very much, oh, no. She isn't a charity, so it's not we can't step in. We can't do anything.

We can't enforce anything because she isn't saying she's a charity. So they've stepped out. The Charity Commission bowed out. They were like, no. We'll leave this to the councils and HMRC and everybody else.

So we continued with our name because we didn't legally have to take it down. The police didn't tell us to take it down. The council didn't tell tell us to take it down. Solicitors never turned up and said take it down. Nobody did.

But what we found was that we were getting people coming into Blackwood Shop in particular saying, this is this is this is dead to denty p and Barnardo's. What Barnardo's is a charity shop. We're not a charity shop. So we changed the narrative as we evolve because people was what we found is because of our popularity, people have started giving us really good stuff. Right?

And, I mean, I would be doing the donator a dish justice if I was to sell those leather jackets for 20 p, if I was to sell those first edition books for 20 p. So therefore, I have to do the right thing by the baby bank, and we decided to rebrand as Food Bank Fundraising Shop. And there's nothing anybody can do about that. The council, the charity commission, the the the fundraiser, but nobody can do anything about that because we've been authorized to trade by the Financial Conduct Authority as Foodbank Fundraising as James Baby Bank and Charity Shop because we're not doing it, we're not deceiving the public in any way. Because nobody takes a wage, okay, including myself, including Daniel, nobody takes a wage, which I I get onto in a bit because this is your next point, then it is being used for charitable purposes.

Right. What does all the money go to the donations? Any proof? Yeah. There is.

But you don't need to see it because I'm not a registered charity. The council and the police are welcome to see it if they wanna see it, and they're welcome to pop in on HMRC. All the books are kept and accounted for. I don't need to submit anything to anybody. It is used to pay the shops, pay the electric, pay the water, pay the bills, buy the food banks, pay for the nappies, buy things like castles, pay for mascots, buy Easter eggs.

I don't know. What else have we bought out of it? Things for the allotment to grow food, litter picking things for mothers. They we pay for the, staff to have their lunch, which we don't have to because we're not a registered charity, and we'll also pay their petrol, in certain circumstances, which we don't have to because we're not a registered charity. And quite a few registered charities don't do that for their, volunteers.

Okay? They try and skirt out of it. Why are you trying to ruin people's reputation with lies? Well, I don't know. Ask yourself this one, Natalie, because you posting this false narrative about me, and you don't like it when I give it you back.

You don't like it when I give it you back, do you? Okay? So your life is being ruined right now because you've chosen to come out of your way for nearly two years and bother me. Same as all the other people. Now I've already shut two charities down, and one of and their lives are in tatters because of it.

Right? So if you think you're gonna walk away from this unscathed, you're not gonna. Okay? All of you are all connected. Okay?

You're all connected in one way, shape, or form. And you've all got a group chat, and you're all posting information on it, and none of you have actually come and knocked my door and asked me directly. So if you think that your reputation is being ruined with lies, then that's your problem, isn't it? It's only slander if it's not true. So well done.

According to yeah. It was according to one of my volunteers. She said that your husband was a website designer, but she may have got that mixed up with, Tara's husband because I think he's a website designer. But this is only what she said. So if you're single, that's then that's up to you.

But it's you that's uploading stuff to the website and involving yourself. And you posted on the Combran group, didn't you, last week? So this isn't something that's been going on, like, two years ago. This is fresh, isn't it? You you decided to write that we were fraudsters, on the Internet a week ago to now.

So you can expect this come back at least. But we were told you'd run away scared and try and pull your disability card. We were told that. But, unfortunately, I think my disabilities will trump yours. What does it say?

You will expose yourself soon enough. Yeah. Well, you come in. I'm I'm an open book. Some sometimes soon.

You are bullying and harassing me. No. We're not. We're not bullying and harassing you. We're giving you exactly what you're giving to us.

We're telling people exactly what you're doing. You're posting a false narrative about us saying we're fraudsters and scammers, and you've been doing it for over two years. And you are linked to this website. Says a lot about the person who you are. Yes.

It does. I I wouldn't mess with me. What do you reckon, Daniel? That wouldn't mess with me. Scammers always get caught in the end.

Yeah. Well, it's been five years now, and I'll be waiting on the news because of the crimes you are committing. What crimes am I committing? Asking people to donate stuff so that we well, it started off. We were just asking for baby stuff to give back out to people, and then all this fantastic stuff was given to us.

And we were like, well, what are we gonna do with it all? How do we choose who it goes to? What is the best way to deal with 400 coats? What is the best way to deal with 400, nineties? How do we deal with this?

And we said, let's take the model from charity shops and the tip shops, and let's run with that model as our business plan, which we did. And, obviously, that's been accepted by the councils, trading standard, HMRC, the queen, and anybody else who gives a damn. You're lucky I don't have I don't have enough money for to file a lawsuit. Well, you you wouldn't win, my love. You could take it to the small claims court if you wanted.

You can come and make a citizen's arrest today. You're not gonna win because it's only slander if it's not true. So you can crack on me, you you you lawsuit. I'm happy with that. Right.

Right. Where's that one? I've missed one. Oh, yeah. Yeah.

This is this is this is the best one. Listen in. Everybody listening? Everybody listening? How come you have volunteers working for you, but you're not a registered charity?

Isn't that slave labor? What do you reckon, Daniel? Are you being slave labored? No. That's not.

Yeah. What do you think, Chloe? No. So why do you choose I won't put you on camera, but why do you choose to volunteer? Put you on camera, a guy put me on camera on anime.

Oh, did he yeah. Because they went to anime on the weekend. They had a good time. I'll try and put the photos up if they let me because they look good. Having good for the community instead of I know all the charity shops are mostly dodgy.

Some charities are. I mean, they we only look into them. Yeah. And I know you've had trouble in some of the charity shops over there. Yeah.

I choose this one because I feel like this white one's me. Okay. Yeah. Oh, well, I I open it. I hope you do feel like that.

Yeah. And we know that when people come and they stay, they stay for a very long time. We know that. So I don't know if any of my other vol I was I saw it the other day, actually. I saw something.

I think it, Tour Vine Markets and all are doing, like, little TikToks about their shops and stuff, you know, to try and get trading and and awareness about their small businesses. So perhaps we'll ask our volunteers why they all volunteer. We won't ask Daniel because Daniel is slave labor. But just for you to be aware, you can volunteer to do any job. Just in case you aren't aware, Natalie, and you don't understand the concept of what we're doing, you can volunteer anyway.

You don't have to be a charity. You can volunteer for the council. You can volunteer for the the, the crime prevention service. You can volunteer for the courts. You don't need to be a charity to volunteer.

My volunteers, I would like to think, are well looked after. They're paid, £20 worth of stock a day, because that's tax free and they usually buy stuff anyway, so we might as well give it them for free. It upsets me when people rob us because we give them so much for free. We run them around. We give them dinner.

We look after them. We make sure they're sorted in their own lives. And it really upsets me when they steal off us because there's no need to steal off us. And I I tell you what, that's the first thing that comes out of Jan's mouth. Every time something like this happens, you do not need to steal off Jane because if you need any help, she will sort you out.

So I think perhaps we might ask our volunteers why they've chosen to volunteer for us. And and then that will give you an insight as well. I I do try and shield the volunteers because I don't think it's fair that they volunteer for us, and they know what they're putting up to when they come into the building. They know what's out there, and the people are out there doing all of these horrible things, and they still choose to volunteer for us. So I don't particularly wanna put them full face on camera with their identity, but maybe we could do it like we've just done with Chloe now.

Chloe's just said why. So maybe we'll do that and you can see because a lot of them are mothers that we've already helped or grandmothers that we've already helped or vulnerable adults that don't feel safe elsewhere working. Because some of our vulnerable adults have had major problems, major vulnerability problems, working in other charity shops because they're not disability aware because of all the training I've had around disabilities and other things. So would you like to say some of the things happened to you in other charity shops or no? Let's say it was bad in all the other charity shops, didn't you, but Yeah.

Yeah. I know you had some bad stuff happen to you, didn't you? Yeah. We don't have to say well, but I I you're not the only one. I've had that a few times, you know.

I've had people with, specific disabilities come in and make that. I mean, some people's disabilities are hidden, but people I have trouble speaking as well. So I try to take everything to our place. Mostly everything Yeah. Sometimes I don't hear my words outright, and I talk really fast as well.

Yeah. And, sometimes I'm and you can't I can't pronounce my words. I could have done my speech therapy I think or some allocution lessons or something. But I think you do alright. Yeah.

I think you do alright in our shop. And I don't ever say anything like to cut and roast out putting stuff back and will never say that. Yeah. No. I know.

I know. But no. No. I think, you know, perhaps we'll do that and and see why the volunteers, volunteer. But I I think it's primarily to help the mothers.

That that's how they feel. They wanna help mothers as well. So I hope that's answered your question, my 72,000 followers and Natalie. But I you need to take this website down, guys, because you just absolutely just, you know, I there isn't anybody out there now that actually supports you, I don't think, on this website. Because look at the donations we got.

You wanna see the stuff I've just added now vintage with proper vintage Marks and Spencer's and and really old labels. And it's like, oh, it's beautiful stuff. Thank you so much. Just because people are listening that we're now stocking vintage stuff in Blackwood shop. Look at our book sales.

We're we're now getting people walking in, going straight to the book area because we're in this within two weeks, Dawn has established us as a as a vintage bookshop. You you're just clutching at straws now with your website, guys, and you're just making yourself look like a complete bunch of stokers. What do you think, though? Yeah. It just looks as cheerful, isn't it?

It's like as if they're just stalking us. Yeah. You know? Anyway, there we are then. Hope that's answered your questions.
