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 Big Chill Enchanted Garden 99

While several commercial festivals are starting next weekend in Cornwall, the Big Chill provides a real alternative, set in beautiful Victorian gardens. No "stars" are booked but there are DJs, from Andy Kershaw to Gilles Peterson with drum'n'bass from Peshay and DJ Spooky, the innovative sounds of BJ Cole and Luke Vibert, plus live sets from Fila Brazilia, Fridge and others. Add art trails, cinema, mixed media and limited numbers and it really does get back to the true idea of a festival. Advance tickets only.

Larmer Tree Gardens, nr Salisbury, Wilts (0181-372 9735) pounds 55, Fri to 8 Aug
