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.

Salford have named Phil Veivers as the coach to lead them into their new stadium for the start of next season.

The former St Helens player was in temporary charge for much of last season while Shaun McRae was on sick leave. He was an unsuccessful candidate for the permanent job when Matt Parish was appointed in July, but Parish departed suddenly last week, having won only one of his six games, citing irreconcilable differences with others at the club.

The North Wales Crusaders have appointed the former Welsh rugby league coach Clive Griffiths as the man to take them into Championship 1 next season.
