Bargain Hunter: Heritage Open Days is your chance to take a free look behind closed doors
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.An open day next month offers free entry to more than 4,500 places across England that are usually closed to the public or charge for admission.

This year it's being held over the four days from Thursday 12 to Sunday 15 September and includes around 600 National Trust properties – such as the 18th-century Octogen at A La Ronde in Exmouth, Devon, pictured right – which is opening for free on the Saturday. The event has been held for 19 years and new attractions include Brightwalton Ecohouse in Berkshire, Birmingham Botanical Gardens and Chatley Heath Semaphore Tower in Surrey. Guided tours will be included free at many locations but the most popular ones will need to be pre-booked through the event's website at www.heritageopendays.org.uk
