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.

This summer the Three Choirs Festival takes place in Gloucester from 15-22 Aug and celebrates the 150th Anniversary of the birth of Sir Hubert Parry (1848-1918). The emphasis throughout the week is, of course, on the English choral tradition, yet this purely orchestral concert from the Philharmonia, conducted by Richard Hickox (above), offers a very rare opportunity to hear Parry's Symphony No 4.

Gloucester Cathedral, College Green, 19 Aug, 7.45pm
