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.

'Common Ground' showcases new work from Scotland and Wales taking the notion of ‘home’and ‘community’ as it’s inspiration. The exhibition is led by Document Scotland, a collective of four Scots-born photographers - Colin McPherson, Jeremy Sutton-Hibbert, Sophie Gerrard and Stephen McLaren, each exponents of documentary photography.

Document Scotland is joined by the Welsh collective ‘A Fine Beginning’ made up of Abbie Trayler-Smith, James O Jenkins, Jack Latham and Gawain Barnard.

The show runs from 26 August until 19 October 2014 at the Street Level Photoworks in Glasgow.
