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.

Sir: As a passionate lover of north Norfolk, I was both delighted and saddened that Anna Pavord was not 'awed' by her walk there ('A soul beached on shifting sands', 12 December).

Delighted, because I hope the area remains as it is for those who appreciate its beauty. Long may it remain so. Saddened, because she was not enchanted by the vast open spaces where horizon and sea meet, the loneliness, the unquestionably beautiful sandy beaches, the marshes, the coastal footpaths which in season boast exquisite wild flowers, the delightful flint cottages . . .

I too remember childhood summers in South Wales. Flat coastline or rugged, I believe both have equal beauty. Just different.

Yours faithfully,
