Letter: Building a suite
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.From Ms Mary North
Sir: The construction industry has always been a repository of many talents. John Walsh's column (Section Two, 22 February) reminds me that the builder who renovated our derelict house in 1971 was an ex-professional violinist.
When the ground floor lighting circuit was complete, Keith fetched his violin from its home in the lorry cab, and we celebrated the grand switch- on with his performance of the Chaconne from Bach's Suite in D minor for unaccompanied violin.
Yours sincerely,
Mary North
