Win a memorable Husky riding experience for two
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.The leaves are falling, the nights are closing in and the shop displays are lighting up. It can only mean one thing: Christmas is in the air!
It's a magical time of year - but why not make it even more special with a Husky Riding Experience? The Independent has got together with Discover Dogs to offer a fabulous prize for all dog-lovers.
You will be riding as a passenger on a four-wheeled 'sled' through the beautiful scenery of Thetford Forest in East Anglia. It is virtually impossible to describe the uniqueness of the experience – riding behind these wonderful dogs and having the opportunity to watch them in action from such close quarters. What's more, you get to relax and enjoy the ride, without having to control the team yourself.
On arrival you will be met by your host. You'll meet the dogs and learn a little about Huskies: their history, how to fit a harness, etc. You will then set off on your ride; you will be out for some time - depending on the weather conditions on the day. On return the Huskies will be watered and petted; then it will be time for your well earned refreshments, with more time to chat and get to know the dogs.
To win this fabulous prize, you just need to answer one question:
