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.

The sister of missing graduate Melanie Hall yesterday made an emotional plea for public help in tracing her. Dominique Hall, 27, urged as many people as possible who attended the Cadillacs nightclub in Bath nine days ago, when her sister disappeared, to come forward to aid police.

She said: "If anyone has still not come forward despite the national publicity, please, please ring the police with any ideas."

Avon and Somerset Police are still processing nearly 1,000 questionnaires filled in by patrons at the club last weekend. But they still had no sighting of the 25-year-old hospital worker leaving the club in Walcot Street.
