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.

Owners of vintage race cars from the 1920s and 1930s spent the weekend powering their way up a 2,126ft fell in the Lake District as part of an annual pilgrimage.

A record number of the sport cars enthusiasts from across the country gathered in the scenic Lake District with their old vehicles.

Over 150 vehicles, including Bentleys, Austins and Bugatti scaled Fleetwith Pike in Cumbria amid the wet weather conditions.

The classic car owners got behind the wheel and powered the cars they've been meticulously restoring for decades.
