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.

Chris Sheasby, the England forward, has been transferred by Wasps back to Harlequins for a "nominal" fee. Sheasby, who has won seven England caps, the last as a substitute in the draw against New Zealand in December, switched in the other direction for the start of last season and played in Wasps' league winning team.

John Liley, the former England A and Leicester full-back, has joined the Jewson First Division leaders, Worcester. Liley was one of 12 players made redundant by Second Division Moseley three weeks ago.

Bath's former England Under-18 captain, Joe Ewens, yesterday joined the Allied Dunbar Premiership Two leaders, Bedford, on loan. Ewens, a centre, who has struggled to make an impact at the Recreation Ground despite a fine schoolboy career, will be with Bedford until May.
