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 year National Parks Week gives visitors a chance to celebrate our incredible and varied wilderness.
This year the National Parks Week runs from 28 July – 3 August and there are 10 national parks across England to explore. Each has created a special event to celebrate National Parks Week, from picnics and treasure hunts in the park, to bicycle rides, safaris and outdoor art exhibitions.
