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 we start a new year with new restrictions being rolled out for those travelling out of China due to rising Covid cases and commuters in the UK being brought to a standstill because of ongoing strikes, we ask what does the year ahead hold for travel?

Join our travel editor Helen Coffey in conversation with our travel correspondent Simon Calder during the latest in our virtual event series being held on January 17.

Helen and Simon will discuss what these latest Covid measures are likely to mean for international travel throughout the year as well as tips for those wishing to travel safely while restrictions are imposed.

The expert pair will also assess what the ongoing strikes in the UK mean for the rest of 2023 and if there is a likely resolution between the unions and government in sight.

And what about the snow shortage in Europe this ski season? Simon and Helen will look at how to still enjoy a skiing holiday this year as well as other tips on how to travel cost efficiently over coming months as the cost of living crisis worsens.

The pair will also leave plenty of time to answer questions from those joining the event, so don’t forget to submit yours when you sign up for free.

The event will take place on Zoom at 6.30pm and last an hour. To find out more and sign up for free click here
