May, who has only been prime minister since July last year, is taking the opportunity to renew the country's "special relationship" with the US - something that has been forged in politics since the 1980s.
"The UK is by instinct and history a great, global nation that recognises its responsibilities to the world," May will say in a speech later on Thursday.
"And as we end our membership of the European Union, we have the opportunity to reassert our belief in a confident, sovereign and global Britain, ready to build relationships with old friends and new allies alike. So as we rediscover our confidence together - as you renew your nation just as we renew ours - we have the opportunity, indeed the responsibility, to renew the special relationship for this new age."
