🌱 Every tree starts with a single seed. Every woodland starts with a commitment.
We're proud to partner with Irish Trees to support the restoration of native Irish woodlands at Trees Ltd Dunsany Nature Reserve, Co. Meath.
From 2026, for every new lifetime mortgage completed by Spry Finance, a native Irish tree will be planted in the customer's name, becoming part of a growing woodland that will help restore habitats, support wildlife, and enhance biodiversity for generations to come.
Just as our customers think about the future, these trees will grow to create a lasting legacy, benefiting both people and nature long into the years ahead.
We look forward to sharing the journey as the woodland grows.

“Every four years we tell ourselves we won’t get sucked in. Then suddenly we’re watching four matches a day, arguing about VAR, and cheering for whoever is playing England.”

Ireland may not be at this year’s World Cup, but for many of us the tournament still holds a special place in our hearts. It’s about more than football; it’s about memories. David O’Leary’s penalty, Ray Houghton’s lopping shot, and Robbie Keane’s dramatic late equaliser. Packed pubs, family gatherings and summers we’ll never forget.

Read our latest article on the Spry Hub about why the World Cup still captures the imagination of the Irish public – even when the Boys in Green aren’t there. https://www.spryfinance.ie/spry-hub/ireland-arent-at-the-world-cup-but-heres-why-well-still-be-watching/

With the mercury set to top 29C, keeping cool in the sun is important – and for many of us that means ice cream! ☀️🍦

So we’ve taken a trip back in time to rate the frozen treats that defined Irish summers – the ones burned into your memory from seaside trips, the sidelines at GAA blitzes, and those rare evenings when Ireland actually felt hot.

Some are absolute legends. Some divided opinion. All of them come with strong nostalgia and sticky fingers.

And yes… the 99 still reigns supreme.

The Guinness Choir is celebrating 75 years of singing, friendship and community – and you have the chance to be part of it…

Since 1951, the choir has brought generations of people together through music, and this milestone is being marked in style, with the world premiere concert of The City of Our Dreaming at St Patrick’s Cathedral on May 7.

This brand new choral piece – inspired by Dublin and her people – is a specially commissioned collaboration between the poet Paula Meehan and composer Seán Doherty.

There will also be a special reception will be held at the Mansion House on April 28 to honour the choir’s contribution to Dublin life.

Spry Finance is proud to support The Guinness Choir. Learn more about Paula and Seán’s remarkable collaboration, and get ticket information for the choir’s 75th anniversary events here: https://www.spryfinance.ie/spry-hub/the-guinness-choirs-75th-anniversary/

Today, at Spry Finance we mark International Women’s Day with a celebration of older women - women who have raised families, built careers, cared for others, started again, changed direction, and who are stepping into their later lives with confidence and curiosity.

Our Head of Marketing and Communications, Ailish McGlew, sat down with Christine O’Kelly from the Age Friendly University at DCU to talk about the role of older women, the challenges they face and the enormous benefits of lifelong learning.

What the conversation shows is that there is no expiry date on curiosity, no age limit on ambition and no boundaries on what older women can achieve.
