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.

You've put up the tree, hung garlands and a wreath is hanging majestically on your front door; it definitely looks like Christmas but what about a festive scent?

The rise in popularity of artificial trees means some of the smells traditionally associated with Christmas have disappeared.

The best way to reintroduce them into your home - and of course add to the cosy wintery atmosphere - is with candles.

Here's our roundup of the best of the bunch:

If it's pine needles you're after Shay & Blue's Pine d'Antibes is an authentic take on the woody scent.

For something a little sweeter cinnamon and gingerbread dominate Roja's Essence of Christmas Candle.

For those with a big budget, you can't get more festive than Cire Trudon's Nazareth candle, as well as the glitzy gold packaging there's an aromatic blend of orange, clove and cinnamon.
