Appeals: PSS
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.PSS (Personal Service Society), a large voluntary service work agency, needs to raise pounds 25,000 to continue its work helping elderly people to live independently within the community and out of institutional care. The society has pioneered various schemes: two involve respite care when a person needs to recuperate after an illness or give their usual carer a break. It also organises a daily carers scheme which supplies a vetted helper to an elderly person who cannot find a person to give some extra help around the house. Part of PSS's funding comes from local and health authorities, but the rest must be found through donations.
