"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."
"Millions of households will soon be able to benefit from cash payments, rent support, food vouchers and more under a new scheme set to be launched by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP). From April, councils will be able to administer Labour's new Crisis and Resilience Fund', designed to support low-income households at times when affording the essentials becomes a struggle."
Donations enable journalists to report on developing stories, investigate political finance and produce documentaries that illuminate reproductive-rights struggles while keeping reporting freely accessible. Millions of households will be eligible for cash payments, rent support, food vouchers and other assistance under a new Department for Work and Pensions Crisis and Resilience Fund. Councils will begin administering the fund from April. The fund replaces the Household Support Fund and carries a government pledge of £1 billion a year for at least three years to local authorities. Rising household bills and Trussell Trust research showing 14 million adults skipping meals underline the need for this support. The Local Government Association welcomed the long-term commitment.
