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.

We love...

We're not sure about…

Chilled to the bone

With no sign of the summer in sight, we're fed up with the wintry weather. The unseasonable chill may have done wonders for knitwear companies such as Toft, whose bobble hats can be bought ready-made or unassembled, but we'd rather be thinking about swimwear. Pom Pom hat ready-made, £61; knitting kit, £31; thetoftalpacashop.co.uk

We're buying...

Postcard prints

Just out is the new collaboration between queen of prints Mary Katrantzou and denim label Current/Elliott. The collection includes tailored separates and dresses featuring the statement prints inspired by foreign travel. Past printed denim skirt, £285, Mary Katrantzou X Current/Elliott; my-wardrobe.com

We're saving up for...
