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.

Check the state of the surf before you head for the mile-long beach at Praa Sands, between Penzance and Helston, this weekend, to watch round one of the Sola/ Wave Rebel body-boarding grand prix. This is the start of the Cornish world water sports festival, running from March to October, which includes pilot gig racing, surf life-saving and the Cutty Sark tall ships race. One of the festival sponsors is the St Austell brewery, so you can enjoy a glass of Tinners or Wreckers while you admire the rippling muscles.

Festival hot line: 0891 22 1998, Sola/ Wave: 01637 871153, Surfcall: 0839380 360
