Appeals: The Lily Davis Special Playgroup
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 Lily Davis Special Playgroup was established in 1973 to help pre-school children with physical, mental and emotional difficulties, living in the London Borough of Lambeth. The playgroup is run by four regular workers, volunteers and various professionals - speech therapists, physiotherapists, educational psychologists and doctors - who visit regularly. The aim is to give care and encouragement to help children reach their potential and enter the education system at a time suited to them, as well as supporting their parents. The playgroup needs to raise pounds 20,000 to replace its van which brings the children to and from the group.
