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.

ANY parent with a child who wets the bed knows the problems of taking them on holiday. Now there is a new tablet that can help to prevent the problem. It contains a substance known as anti-diuretic hormone, which slows down the production of urine. The medication, called desmopressin, has been available in the form of a nasal spray for several years but has not been convenient to take on holiday because it has to be stored in a refrigerator. From tomorrow it will be available in tablet form. Further information is available from the Enuresis Resource and Information Centre, 65 St Michael's Hill, Bristol BS2 8DZ.
