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.

SNOWDROPS at Hodsock Priory Gardens, Blyth, near Worksop, Nottinghamshire, will be on show today and tomorrow, beside the half-mile woodland trail laid out by Sir Andrew and Lady Buchanan. Other plants to look out for include garrya, the winter-flowering cherry, cyclamen, hellebores, aconites and Clematis armandii. Gardens open from 10am till dusk; admission pounds 1.80.

Look for snowdrops, too, at Anglesea Abbey, the National Trust's garden at Lode, near Cambridge, where there is a new version named after the head gardener, Richard Ayres. Open today and tomorrow 12 noon-4pm; admission pounds 2.50.
