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.

Price strikes at the end

The three-times English singles champion Mary Price snatched a last-gasp winner to steer Desborough Maidenhead through to the final of the Yetton Trophy at the women's All-England Indoor Championships in Southampton yesterday. Desborough led 60-45 after 15 ends but in an amazing fightback Lincoln took a 74-70 lead with two ends to play. At the penultimate end, Val Linton-Phare scored a four against Pat Prisk to bring Desborough level at 74-74. And at the deciding end, Price grabbed a single against Kath Mould to take Desborough through 75-74. In the other semi-final, the defending champions, Egham of Surrey, cruised through with a 95-67 victory over Clevedon.
