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.

TWO goals from Paul Barry and one from Warren Shave gave Anchorians a 3-2 victory away at Hendon to maintain their lead at the top of the Nastro Azzurro South Premier, writes Bill Colwill.

Anchorians are a point clear of Hampstead and Westminster, Gore Court and City of Portsmouth, who all registered wins. Stephen Garrard's second-half goal gave Gore Court, who have a game in hand, their 1-0 success at Winchester.

Hampstead went a goal down to a Matt Arnold special after five minutes at Wimbledon before Andy Thompson put them on terms before the interval. Goals in the second half from Dan Williams and the Australian Dave Bott then saw Hampstead safely home.

In the West Premier League, Taunton Vale's 2-1 win against Plymouth moved them back to the top. Olton and West Warwick's attacking hockey has taken them six points clear at the top of the Ernst and Young Midland Premier - their latest success was a 3-0 win at Lichfield.
