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.

For the tenth anniversary of the "Joy To The World" charity performance, a cast of over 80 celebrities will convene amidst the splendour of the Royal Albert Hall - which will be decorated this year in the style of a magnificent Gothic Cathedral with stained glass windows. It is a wonder that there will be room to fit the carols, readings, and extravagant productions combined with fanfare trumpeters, solo voices and choirs. This will be the last time the event is held at the Albert Hall. Although tickets are sold out, donations can still be made. The event will be televised on BBC1 on Christmas Eve at 12 noon.

For donations please call: 0171- 582 3861. The charities are The Children's Trust, Tadworth, Fight For Life, The Children's Cancer Unit at Middlesex Hospital and Osteopathic Centre for Children.
