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 documentary series about integration in multi-cultural Britain has won a prestigious international television award.

Make Bradford British won the Rose d'Or for Reality and Factual Entertainment at a ceremony in the Belgian capital of Brussels.

The Channel 4 programme looked at how people from different backgrounds lived together in Bradford, West Yorkshire, and filmed them as they shared their lives.

Other winners on the night included Sky 1's Spy, which was named best sitcom, and the BBC documentary Freddie Mercury: The Great Pretender, which won the award for arts programmes.

More than 300 entries from over 30 countries were submitted this year. It was the first time in more than 50 years the event was not held in Switzerland.
