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.As lockdown disruption continues, securing a supermarket delivery slot to get your weekly shop is still hard, as many are fully booked weeks in advance.
But as essential items such as pasta, milk, bread and baby milk are still high in demand, some supermarkets have partnered with Deliveroo to help people get what they need.
This new partnership means people can still replenish kitchen cupboards while avoiding contact with anyone.
It’s also encouraging people to stay indoors for longer, as a trip out to the shops will be less frequent.
All deliveries from Deliveroo are contact free, and drivers will leave your order outside your door. Other apps, like Uber Eats, are working with some local convenience stores to deliver food some food items, too.
Here are all the details on what supermarkets are participating.
