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.

To mark Beacon Europe Day, and the end of both the UK's EC Presidency and the European Arts Festival, on New Year's Eve, the Barbican Centre is presenting a day of music, drama and dance culminating in a 9.45pm concert of Wagner, Bax, Ravel and Rachmaninov given by the European Community Youth Orchestra under Vladimir Ashkenazy and featuring Frederick Kempf, 1992 BBC Young Musician of the Year, as soloist in Rachmaninov's Paganini Rhapsody.

Readers can buy pounds 10, pounds 15, pounds 20, pounds 25 tickets at two for the price of one by calling the Barbican box-office on 071-638 8891, quoting this offer.

Lloyds Bank, sponsor of the BBC Young Musician of the Year competition, has produced a limited edition CD of the concerto finals of the 1992 competition, recorded live at the Royal Concert Hall, Glasgow, last April and featuring Kevin Norbury in Gregson's Tuba Concerto, Rachel Barnes in Weber's Bassoon Concerto, Thomas Carroll in Shostakovich's Cello Concerto No 1 and the overall winner, Frederick Kempf, in the Paganini Rhapsody.

We have free CDs to give away to the first 50 readers to send their name and address, on a postcard, to: Lloyds CD Offer, The Independent, 40 City Rd, London EC1Y 2DB

Entry forms for the 1994 competition will be available in branches of Lloyds Bank from January
