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.

GIANT-SIZED papier mache cherubs may be the stuff of some people's nightmares, but at Papier Marche, the funky craft shop off Clerkenwell Green, they're some of their best sellers. Here you'll find massive heart- shaped mirrors, spiky cacti and stylised animals to brighten the dullest corners of your home or to provide the ultimate quirky talking point. See scraps of chicken wire and soggy paper being transformed into colourful objets d'art in their on-site workshop. Mini piggy banks start at only a few pounds, or commission their artists to model your moggie for a more indulgent buy.

Papier Marche, 53 Clerkenwell Close, London EC1, telephone 0171 251 6311, open Monday-Saturday 11am-6pm
