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.This year’s Grand National at Aintree takes place this weekend, so now is a good time to sort out your office sweepstake.
The 40 horses are due to take post at 5.15pm on Saturday, which gives you plenty of time to round up enough people to get a sweepstake going.
Simply click on the link below to find the sweepstake in PDF form.
Print it, cut out the 40 slips and put them all in a hat. Then without looking pick out the slips out one by one, remembering to fill out the accompanying form.
There are 40 runners and riders, so if you have 40 people in your office willing to play you could charge people £2 to play. That would leave the winner £40, the runner-up £25, with £10 for third place and £5 for fourth.
Or if you’re feeling slightly more adventurous, £5 per entry would give you a prizepot of £200. That’s £100 for the winner, £50 for second place, £30 for third and £20 for fourth.
