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.

Sir: Now that all the "children" are ensconced in universities and colleges, how about a supplement for the grey and bald people?

Some examples: residential homes and the prices to be paid; how to spend your children's inheritance; the 50 best ways of growing old; the 50 best ways of achieving efficiency in your home; the alternatives to television; the 50 best tricks to avoid paying extra tax; growing old and enjoying it through the pain; accepting the inevitable; avoiding all "professionals".

There are many more ideas. My wife and I could provide information for a modest fee.
