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.

From 5 to 20 July the Cheltenham International Festival of Music returns. This year, there are 28 premieres, with large-scale works from Buller and Hoyland. Major artists appearing include Ian Bostridge, Melvyn Tan, Natalie Clein and the European Chamber Opera.

We have tickets on offer for the opening night of the Festival at the Cheltenham Town Hall where the BBC Philharmonic, conducted by Vassily Sinaisky, will present the following programme: Brahms Symphony No1 in C minor, Buller Illusions (world premiere) and Tchaikovsky's Piano Concerto No1 in B minor, with Boris Berezovsky (above) on piano, the piece with which he won the 1990 Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow

The first 10 Eye readers to call the Festival box office - 01242 227979 (9.30am-5.30pm, Mon-Sat) - will win a pair of free tickets for the above concert and a free CD of Boris Berezovsky's recording of Russian solo piano music (Teldec). The next 15 callers to the box office will be offered the chance to buy two tickets for the price of one, and if they book, they will also receive a CD.
