Support the Guardian
Help us deliver independent investigative journalism
The Guardian has an illustrious record of holding power to account and championing the voices of those less heard. Our Covid-19 investigations exposed governmental and social failings, as did our earlier work on the Snowden disclosures, the Windrush scandal, Cambridge Analytica and the Panama Papers. We are passionate about the climate emergency, social justice, fairness and progress. We remain dedicated to truth and to bringing about a more hopeful future.

Why your support matters
Unlike many news organisations, we have kept our journalism open to our global audience. We have not put up a paywall as we believe everyone deserves access to quality journalism, at a time when factual, honest reporting is critical.
We pride ourselves on our breaking news stories, in-depth analysis and thoughtful opinion pieces. But it's not just the news desk that works round the clock. Across the world, our sports writers, arts critics, interviewers and science reporters are dedicated to bringing you the quality coverage you have come to expect of the Guardian. Why settle for less?
Our journalism is editorially independent, meaning we set our own agenda. No one edits our editor and no one steers our opinion. We are free from commercial bias and are not influenced by billionaire owners, politicians or shareholders. This independence matters because it enables us to challenge the powerful, and hold them to account.
