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.

New boots at a discount if you trade in your old pair

Got an old pair of boots? If you donate them to charity, you'll be able to get 20 per cent off the price of a new pair from Monday, through a new campaign being launched by Mountain Warehouse.

Its Re-Boot campaign – being held in conjunction with the United Shoe Recycling Company – will help to raise money for British Exploring, a UK-based youth development charity that aims to give youngsters experience of self-discovery in the wilderness.

To take part, you'll need to take your old boots to a participating store, where you'll then get the 20 per cent discount in the same store. The offer can't be claimed online.

Around 120 stores are involved in the venture and you can find a list of them at Mountainwarehouse.com.

An offer made to measure on Savile Row shirts

From old boots to new shirts. Quidco is offering an exclusive discount and cashback deal until Sunday through the Savile Row Company.

You'll get the tailor's 15 per cent cashback when you buy any shirt for £22.95, plus there's a bonus offer if you use the exclusive voucher code QD2295 by tomorrow. Combining the two can save you up to £22 per shirt. Details at quidco.com/the-savile-row-company/.

Earn some cash at the last minute when you open an Isa

When opening an account through Topcashback, savers looking to make a last-minute investment in an Isa can earn £115.50 in cashback with Fidelity and up to £105 with Nutmeg.

A cut-price break in a Brecon Beacons cottage
