Coinciding with National Bike Week, 10-18 May, Payzone, Ireland's largest consumer payments network, is excited to announce an expanded partnership with Bleeper, Dublin's longest-running stationless bike service. Building on a successful partnership since 2023, Payzone has renewed its sponsorship of Bleeper's fleet of over 800 public bikes, operating across Dublin City, Fingal, and Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Councils, for a further two years. In addition to the renewed sponsorship, Payzone has now added new functionality and features for active travel to its popular Payzone app, empowering users to not only locate the nearest Bleeper bike but also unlock and pay for it seamlessly using their Payzone account. At the core of this partnership is a commitment to sustainability. Bleeper's mission is to fight climate change, "one journey at a time". In 2024 alone, Bleeper users avoided emitting approximately 46,520kg of CO2 by choosing to cycle for their daily trips. By integrating these services into the Payzone app, users now have even greater access to environmentally friendly travel options. Jim Deignan, CEO of Payzone, commented: "This integration with Bleeper reflects our commitment to making everyday easier; in particular to make travel and mobility easier and more accessible to those commuting in the city. In addition to simplifying everyday transactions, we are also actively promoting a greener future for Irish towns and cities." Payzone is committed to continuous innovation, enhancing its users' experience by integrating more value-add services. Payzone was the first app in Ireland to integrate shared bikes into its platform offering with the company planning to add further modes of transport in the future. Hugh Cooney, Founder of Bleeper, added: "This partnership with Payzone represents a step towards making bike-sharing even more accessible to the public. The integration offers an easy and affordable way for more people to choose cycling as a sustainable transport option. We are thrilled to work with Payzone and look forward to further expanding these services." For more than a decade, Payzone's mobile application has been a trusted platform for motorists, delivering continuous innovation. Payzone's application offers a unique blend of parking, transport & micromobility solutions. Operating across18 counties, the Payzone app makes it easy to find and pay for parking, manage toll payments, access shared mobility options and save with exclusive offers, all in one app. See more stories here.

While walking through Dublin city, journalist Quentin Fottrell was scammed.A pleasant sounding, nicely dressed man stopped him and started chatting. Didn't Quentin remember him? After all, the man said, he had worked on his house some years ago. Not wanting to be rude and a little embarrassed at forgetting a face, Quentin continued the chat which slowly turned to the fact that the man had forgotten his wallet and needed some help to get home. It was only when he had walked away, €40 lighter, that Quentin realised he had been scammed.He wrote about the experience in The Irish Times and his article elicited multiple replies from men who had also been scammed by the same man in Dublin city centre.Donal Cronin was one such reader. Although he is a communications expert and deeply knowledgable in the psychology behind persuasion, he too fell victim to the smooth-talking scammer. He took a photograph of the man while they were chatting and Quentin was able to confirm it was the same confidence trickster.This episode was first published in January 2025Quentin and Donal came into studio to explain how the scam worked and how they feel now having being duped.Presented by Bernice Harrison.

Dublin Port has officially launched two new live stream cameras, offering near real-time views of Dublin Bay and Dublin City. The cameras provide the public with a unique insight into the daily operations of Ireland's busiest port - with some 1.6 million ferry passengers and trade worth €165bn (source IMDO) last year. On average, the Port sees some 15,000 ship movements per year in the Dublin Port shipping channel, which is now visible on the live streams. Since going live in beta mode in July, the live streams have been watched over 1.29 million times on YouTube, with viewers from 50 countries worldwide enjoying fascinating Port views set against the backdrop of Ringsend's iconic Poolbeg Chimneys, along with glimpses of the Great South Wall and Poolbeg Lighthouse. Meanwhile, the city-side stream overlooks the River Liffey with views of the Aviva Stadium and Dublin mountains with some of the local yacht and boat clubs in view alongside commercial shipping. The stream has already captured stunning sunrises over the Port, located within the UNESCO-designated Dublin Bay biosphere, as well as the movement of ships entering and leaving the harbour - showcasing the work of Dublin Port's marine teams and shipping lines - and even a meteor sighting in November 2024. During major weather events, avid weather watchers turned to the cameras with spikes seen during both Storm Darragh in December and Storm Eowyn, in January. Dublin Port is also exploring the possibility of providing live marine data and weather updates for viewers, along with introducing a third viewpoint from Poolbeg Lighthouse later this year. Dublin Port continues to open up the Port to the public, offering new ways for people to engage with its operations - even from a distance. Claire Percy, Head of External Affairs at Dublin Port, commented: "These live streams provide a real insight into our busy Port - the hardworking heart of Dublin. "No matter when you tune in, the Port is busy with activity on land and on the water, operating 24/7, 365 days a year. "Ships continuously move, delivering everyday essentials to Ireland and supporting Irish exporters. You might spot ferries, container vessels, bulk ships, and car carriers - all vital activity that often goes unnoticed by the public. "We have had great feedback from viewers so far, who have found the live stream cameras fascinating and even relaxing! Between the movements of the ships, cranes, water, weather and birds, there is always something to see. "Later in the year, the live stream cameras will also provide great views of the sailing regattas of our local yacht and boat clubs."

The Story of Young Champions Fighting Homelessness.In this episode of the All Walks podcast, we meet an incredible group of young people proving that true heroism often goes unseen, thriving in the shadows, where they bring light to those who need it most. We are joined by Founder Brandon, Stephen and Dylan, all volunteers with the DHA>A Mission Born of EmpathyEvery night, when most of us are sleeping soundly, this team of volunteers ventures into the city streets. Their mission? To provide essential supplies, warm meals, and a glimmer of hope to people experiencing homelessness in Dublin City.This initiative started as a simple idea when founder Brandon O'Connor (I while in Transition Year) arranged a sleep out to support his mum, who experienced homelessness and addiction. It was sparked by the desire to make a difference. now six years on with 20 volunteers strong, the DHA is going from strength to strength.Navigating Danger and UncertaintyThe streets of Dublin city at night can be unpredictable and dangerous, but these young heroes don't flinch. They've faced challenges ranging from inclement weather to tense encounters, yet their resolve remains unshaken. Building Bridges, Not Just Giving AidThis isn't just about handing out blankets or food; it's about creating human connections. They listen to stories, provide encouragement, and, perhaps most importantly, remind people they are not forgotten.Why Their Work MattersHomelessness is a complex issue often reduced to stereotypes or ignored altogether. This group reminds us that solutions don't always have to come from large organisations or government policies. Sometimes, it's individuals who make the most profound impact.

Niall chats to Ray O'Donohue, the recently appointed Night-Time Economy Advisor for Dublin City.What is a night mayor? A night czar? A night-time economy advisor? Well, my perception of what it entails is someone who advocates and advises local city council policy and decision-making on what is required in order to make the city more liveable at night, more culturally rich, safer, and to be the glue between various communities like venue owners, promoters, night time economy workers and those who make decisions around how the city operates at night time. But we're not going to take my word for it, we're going to talk to Dublin's first night-time economy advisor Ray O'Donohue.O'Donoghue is known for his work in events and the Sea Sessions festival, before his appointment in April.
