Flutter Donates Over €285,000 to Charity Partner Spinal Injuries Ireland at Dublin Charity Ball
Flutter hosted its second Charity Ball in Dublin last week, raising over €285,000 for Spinal Injuries Ireland – Ireland’s only dedicated support service for people living with a spinal cord injury. The money raised – of which €100,000 was matched by Flutter UKI – will be transformational in the charity’s efforts to provide more services across the country.
Founded in 1994, Spinal Injuries Ireland’s mission is to engage with people with a spinal cord injury, along with their family members. Together, they address barriers to full participation in society and empower their service users to work towards achieving personal, social and vocational goals.
Hosted by Irish stand-up comedian and presenter, Doireann Garrihy and Paddy Power himself, over 400 attendees at Dublin’s Mansion House generously contributed to fundraising efforts through an array of activities including a Mascot Race, Silent Auction, Golden Envelopes, Spin Wheel, Bingo and a raffle. Attendees also heard speeches from the team at Spinal Injuries Ireland and Flutter’s CLO and Group Commercial Director, Padraig O’Riordain.
The Charity Ball showcases Flutter’s pledge to Do More for its communities, as part of its global sustainability strategy, the Positive Impact Plan. The goal of Do More is to improve the lives of 10 million people by 2030, which is made possible by Flutter’s scale and the collective passion of its colleagues.
Phil O’ Kelly, Head of Fundraising at Spinal Injuries Ireland, said: “We are profoundly grateful to the team at Flutter and to everyone who attended the Flutter Ball for their incredible generosity and support. The event was not only a wonderful celebration but also a monumental success.
“Thanks to the astonishing amount of funds raised, we are now able to offer peer-to-peer support and counselling to every individual with a spinal cord injury in Ireland who needs it, for the next two years.
“This is an extraordinary achievement, one that will create a lasting and deeply positive impact on the spinal cord injury community in Ireland. From the bottom of our hearts, a sincere thank you to Flutter for your unwavering support and all you have done for Spinal Injuries Ireland this year.”
Pádraig Ó Ríordáin, CLO and Group Commercial Director at Flutter, said: “Last week’s Charity Ball held in The Mansion House, Dublin in aid of Spinal Injuries Ireland was a tremendous success. It was a true pleasure to undertake fundraising for this wonderful charity which provides an essential service in Ireland.
“We are grateful for the generosity of our guests and donors who collectively helped us to more than double our original fundraising target. The success of this event underlines Flutter’s commitment to the communities in which we work. This is a fundamental objective of Flutter’s Positive Impact Plan.”

Tonybet says a player in Laurier-Station, Canada has claimed the “golden card” prize worth $20,000 CAD in the operator’s World Cup Card Collection. The announcement was made Tuesday 21st July 2026.
The World Cup collection featured 51 cards in total, including 48 digital cards representing participating World Cup nations, plus three unique prize cards in bronze, silver and gold. Tonybet said the bronze card—available during the group stage—was previously found by a customer in Saint-Colomban, Canada, while the silver card—available during the knockout rounds up to the quarter-finals—was won by a player in County Kildare, Ireland.
The golden card became available for the semi-final, third-place play-off and final, and has now been claimed, Tonybet said.
Tonybet Head of Product Kiryl Liudvikevich said: “You can plan a campaign down to the last detail, but you can’t plan what the World Cup brings.
“We designed the collection to evolve with the tournament, and every knockout round created new stories we couldn’t have predicted. Seeing players complete their collections and discovering who would uncover each prize was the most rewarding part of the campaign.
“I hope everyone enjoyed the experience for what it was meant to be: a fun addition to the tournament, played responsibly and always within their limits.”
Tonybet said the collection will remain open until 31 July for players who are still completing sets and spending coins, although all grand prizes have been awarded.
