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.

Acouple in their eighties have found a 'fountain of youth' in China's northern Liaoning province, AFP reports from Hong Kong. Zhou Lianghua and his wife Li Guirong attributed their youthfulness to drinking water from a well which they discovered two years ago in their courtyard in Fuxing village in Pulandian, the Hong Kong based China News Service said. Zhou, who was balding, now has thick black hair. His wife's grey hair has also turned black, the agency said. The couple said they felt '10 years younger' and did not get out of breath climbing hills.
