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.POLICE have appealed for a mother who abandoned her newborn baby girl in a public lavatory to contact them.
The child was found cold, but otherwise well, by a man at the Langold Country Park near Worksop, Nottinghamshire, just before 3pm yesterday. She was taken to the Bassetlaw District General Hospital in Worksop, Nottinghamshire and was said to be "doing well" in the Special Care Baby Unit.
