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.

Lisa Davidson, 22, of Somerset, has just finished her second year studying for a BA in language and communication studies at the University of Wales, Cardiff

"IN THE first year I pretty much wanted to have a taste of everything so I went to as many different clubs as I could. However, I kept coming back to the union purely because it was much cheaper.

"The Tavern is an old-fashioned pub/bar in the union which is open to 1am, so that's good if you just want to go out for a few drinks. The Terminal is a nightclub where there might be a Seventies night one evening and a rave the next. The Finisterre has plays and social nights for particular clubs and societies. The town also offers quite a wide variety. Zeus is a nightclub for people who really want to go clubbing.

"Most of the clubs in Cardiff have student nights which tend to be on a Tuesday or Thursday. There is a really good feel to Cardiff nightlife. I have been clubbing in quite a few cities and there is no bitchiness here. I have walked home on my own at night through Queen Street and felt quite happy. It's bright and light and you generally feel quite safe. The big thing is there's variety - there is a club for everybody."
