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.

Every week we invite competing companies to give us their best deal for a specific holiday. Today: a seven-night holiday in the Caribbean out of season. Prices are per person, based on two travelling together in mid-July.

Tropical Sky

£1,359: Almond Beach Village, Barbados. Includes scheduled flights departing Gatwick on 16 July, transfers and all-inclusive accommodation at the four-star resort.

"Spread over 32 acres of landscaped gardens, this resort features extensive land and water-based activities and a great selection of dining. Especially suited to families, it offers four age-specific children's clubs and a teenage centre," says Steve Garley at Tropical Sky (0870 907 9600; tropicalsky.co.uk).

BA Holidays

£989: Flamboyant Hotel and Villas, Grenada. Includes BA flights departing Gatwick on 18 July and all-inclusive accommodation at the three-star resort.

"Set above the Grand Anse Beach, stunning views are available from all rooms in this friendly, relaxed hotel; there's a saving of over £200 per person if booked by 30 June 2010," says Tracy Long at BA Holidays (0844 493 0758; ba.com/caribbean).

Caribtours

£2,356: One&Only Ocean Club, Bahamas. Includes BA flights departing Heathrow on 20 July and room-only accommodation in a garden view room at the five-star resort.

"With year-round sunshine and gorgeous beaches, the Caribbean offers incredible value for money in the summer. This discount of £405 is a fantastic saving at One&Only Ocean Club, where first-class luxury and superb facilities are second to none," says Steve Stewart at Caribtours (020-7751 0660; caribtours.co.uk).
