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.

BRITAIN'S top sprinters are set to go head-to-head this summer in a three- race series to find the "Fastest Man in Britain.''

The winner will collect pounds 6,000 in prize money, provided by toiletry company Nivea, who will spend around pounds 100,000 each year supporting British athletics over the next three years.

Darren Braithwaite, Darren Campbell and Julian Golding, the World Championship 4x100 metres relay bronze medal winners, will feature in the Nivea for Men British Sprint Challenge at Bedford on 5 July, at the BUPA Games in Gateshead on 19 July and at the British Grand Prix in Sheffield on 2 August.
