Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.*UPDATE* The ball pool for adults is now closed.
Because being an adult is rubbish and all anyone really wants to do is thrash around in a soft play area, a bunch of heroes have opened a pop-up ball pit in Hammersmith.
The pit is free to visit and contains 81,000 balls, which can entertain up to 30 people at one time.
It is the brainchild of creative agency Pearlfisher, who will donate £1 to the charity Right to Play for every person that visits.
They've shunned the traditional multi-coloured balls, instead going for a nice calming, utopian white.
As well as being a good way to let off some steam, play is thought to aid creative thinking.
And the ball pool is a great place to hold your 3pm meeting:
We suggest taking your kid along and making them sit at the edge and watch as you move around the pit like a majestic whale.
Jump In! is at Pearlfisher Gallery: 50 Brook Green, W6 7BJ until 13 February. Open Monday to Friday 10am – 5pm.
