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.

A new magazine aimed at workers who are made redundant was being launched yesterday, targeted at employers as well as people losing their jobs.

Bounceback promises "help and hope" to the unemployed, offering practical support to those who want to start new careers or simply retire early.

Redundancy comes just after death and divorce in the list of emotional traumas treated by counsellors, often leaving people "shattered" according to the magazine,

Editor Stuart Andersen, who has suffered redundancy in his own career, said: "I know the emotions people go through and the loss of confidence even when you know you are good at your job."
