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.

CHANNEL FOUR's weekly gardening programme, Real Gardens, is looking for new recruits - in front of the camera, not behind. Potential contributors don't have to be experts, but must agree to TV crews visiting at least once every two weeks through the growing season. There are no magic makeovers in this series, but volunteers should have some project in mind which the Real Gardens team can help them to achieve.

Typical of Real Gardens's contributors is Annabel Wynne-Jones of Liverpool who lives with her husband Nick and four children in a terraced cottage close to the Mersey. During the four months she was involved in the programme, she returfed the lawn, and built a formal garden with geometrical beds flanked by a new terrace. Interested? If so, contact John Percival at Real Gardens, PO Box 1616, Gerrards Cross SL9 8GD Tel: 01494 870940 or email: mail@arkproductions. demon.co.uk
