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.

The seemingly endless queues of tourists keen to see established shows in the West End are keeping the ad agency behind many of the billboards busy.

Reach4entertainment, the AIM-listed business that owns the Dewynters theatre marketing firm, says Phantom of the Opera, Les Miserables and We Will Rock You look set to keep bringing in audiences for some time yet.

Reach4 was spun out of the old First Artist sports and marketing firm run by the football agent Jon Smith.

It made a loss of £419,000 in the first half of the year, 58 per cent better than the previous first half. Revenues fell by £4.9m to £34.3m.

Shirley Stapleton, finance director, said: "We have spent the last 18 months restructuring and stabilising the business. We have done all the heavy lifting and are now seeing the green shoots of recovery."
