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.

David Acfield has been appointed chairman of the Cricket Advisory Committee, Mike Murray will chair the Finance Advisory Committee and Brian Downing is chairman of the ECB's Marketing Advisory Committee.

The former Lancashire chairman, Bob Bennett, has been elected chairman of the England Management Advisory Committee.

Kent have confirmed the appointment of Steve Marsh as their captain, after the 35-year-old led them to fourth place in the Championship last season in the absence of the injured Mark Benson.
