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 National Council for the Conservation of Plants and Gardens has invited specialist nurseries and holders of national collections of plants in Kent to bring plants to a big sale tomorrow (11am-5pm) at Great Maytham Hall, Rolvenden, Cranbrook.

The hall was Frances Hodgson Burnett's home for nine years at the turn of the century and its overgrown walled garden provided the inspiration for her most famous book, The Secret Garden. When she left, the garden was remodelled by Lutyens, who added a long terrace and steps on the south side of the house. The garden will be open tomorrow (admission pounds 1). Further information from Jean Talboys (0622 880349).
