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.

NEXT Thursday, 11 August, is the centenary of the opening of the West Highland railway line linking Glasgow with Oban, Fort William and Mallaig - one of the most scenic in Britain. To mark the occasion, Case Publications (041-221 5521) has brought out a definitive guide, The West Highland Line. As well as being a compendium of interesting trivia, the book includes a good selection of walks that can be made from many of the stations along the way.
