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.

It's a good time to be an amateur musician, at leat if you like adventures. The long-planned Sheffield 'Contemporary Music- making for Amateurs' week comes up at the end of August. Now for Londoners there is a rare invitation to scale a peak of the romantic orchestral repertoire, Bruckner's Symphony No 9, with one of this year's Proms debutants, Martyn Brabbins, conducting. Part of the current BT-sponsored development scheme of the National Federation of Music Societies, it will be an all-day event at the Bishopsgate Institute on 13 November, with London Sinfonietta players leading the sectional rehearsals. You don't have to belong to an NFMS society, but places are limited to 100: contact 081-740 7286 for more information.
