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.

A train

The best deal in the Scottish Tourist Board's new Autumn Gold brochure is a return sleeper ticket from London Euston to Aberdeen, Edinburgh, Fort William, Glasgow or Inverness for pounds 49.50 each, if two people travel together. Book a week in advance, travel between 27 September and 20 December and hold a valid Autumn Gold card (free; call 08705 511 511).

A boat

Take your partner on a day-trip to the Channel Islands for 10 guineas each. A new fast ferry, operated by Channel Hoppers (0800 735 0000) links Portsmouth with Alderney (on Fridays and Sundays) and Jersey (daily). The normal day return ticket costs pounds 21 per person, but on most dates in September two people can travel for the price of one (pounds 10.50, or 10 guineas, each).
