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.

New Radio 1 breakfast host Nick Grimshaw has already started to dream about his high-profile show.

The 28-year-old takes over on Monday from Chris Moyles, who bowed out last week after more than eight years. He told the Radio Times magazine: "It was a little daunting to begin with, but now I'm just excited. I'm actually dreaming about it - and nice dreams, too."

Grimshaw, who has been holidaying in Ibiza with his friend Kate Moss, said he was coping well while preparing for the early morning starts. Moyles signed off on Friday, telling listeners that the final show felt like "some weird victory" after "all the flak we've taken".
