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 latest group of celebrities facing Lord Sugar in the Apprentice boardroom has been announced.

Sugar will be joined by aides Karren Brady and Claude Littner for a money-raising Comic Relief special that'll air on 7 and 8 March.

Candidates, including TV personalities Amanda Holden and Ryan Clark-Neal and ex-football manager Sam Allardyce, will face off in a task that'll see them organising and hosting a cabaret night.

Scroll through the below gallery to find out which celebrities are taking part.

Comic Relief's first edition of Celebrity Apprentice occurred back in 2007. It culminated in the firing of Piers Morgan who went on to win the US version hosted by Donald Trump one year later.

The regular version of The Apprentice returns to BBC One later this year following a successful 14th series that saw Sian Gabbidon crowned Lord Sugar's latest business partner.
