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.

Three Independent writers have won Glenfiddich Food and Drink Awards, the most prestigious awards in the food industry. The chef Mark Hix won the newspaper cookery writer award for his weekly recipe column and Tracey MacLeod was named restaurant critic 2003 for her reviews in The Independent Magazine.

Richard Ehrlich, of The Independent on Sunday, was named bar writer 2003 for his column in the newspaper's magazine, the Sunday Review.

Hix won his Glenfiddich award with his first nomination. He joined The Independent about a year ago. His recipes are simple, yet sophisticated, and the judges were particularly impressed by his advocacy of seasonal produce.

Hix is the chef-director of Caprice Holdings, which owns Le Caprice, the Ivy and J Sheekey, and his columns typically include anecdotes about life in the kitchens of London's top restaurants, alongside childhood memories.
