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.A couple who found £21,000 in cash on their doorstep in Lytham St Annes, Lancashire, and handed it to police will keep the money after it went unclaimed for 28 days.
Ian Roberts, 61, and Pam Curtis, 58, discovered the £21,480 in £20 notes stashed in a plastic bag inside a wicker basket last month.
Asked if they realised how much money was in the bag, Mr Roberts said: "How many times have you seen £21,000? We had no idea until Pam started counting. At first she said it could be £5,000."
