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.

The Natural History Museum Ice Rink will bring skating back to the city as London's most spectacular winter attraction opens on 5 November 2009. Set in stunning surroundings and featuring the biggest rink to date, it is the perfect way to welcome in the winter season with family and friends. The Natural History Museum Ice Rink has plenty of additional surprises in store for visitors this year. Attractions include a children’s rink for younger skaters, a stylish Café Bar and a classic fairground carousel. Surrounded by 76,000 fairy lights in the nearby trees, whether you are a novice or an expert, don’t miss the chance to skate against the most beautiful backdrop London has to offer.

Positioned in the heart of the most stylish city in the world, the Natural History Museum Ice Rink epitomises the glamour of the capital during the winter months. Located on the Museum’s east lawn and now in its fifth year, the rink has established itself as the place to be seen skating. So wrap up warm, savour the atmospheric setting and finish by enjoying a hot chocolate or a glass of Mulled wine while relaxing in the ultra stylish surroundings of the open-air balcony at the Café Bar.
