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.As the colder weather starts to kick in, it’s crucial to ensure your home is protected against the harsh winter conditions.
This month, the Met Office issued severe weather warnings for the UK after strong winds and heavy downpours swept across the country.
With more bad weather almost certain to follow, it is important you take action now to help minimise damage to your property over the winter months.
According to Halifax Home Insurance claims data, a typical home insurance claim for storm damage can be around £1,000, while flood damage often exceeds £20,000.
It is therefore vital you have adequate home insurance in place to avoid a serious financial headache should disaster strike.
