Dream Days

As part of our commitment to charity work, we hold Dream Days twice a year, for fans with life-limiting illnesses. The Foundation works closely with ‘wish’ charities to organise the days. These organisations specialise in granting wishes to seriously ill children and adults.

We provide a special experience to those fans and a family member, who will be invited to Carrington Training Ground to watch the team training and have the chance to meet with their heroes. There is also an option to go to Old Trafford for a museum and stadium tour following the event.

To enquire about future Dream Days please contact enquiries@mufoundation.org, please note all applicants must be a minimum of seven years of age.

Signed item requests

Please note that applications for signed items are now closed. Applications will re-open ahead of the start of the 2026/27 season.

The Foundation manages all charitable requests for official signed Manchester United items. We donate signed shirts, footballs, pennants and photographs to over 1,000 charities and causes each year.

We receive approximately 300 enquiries each week. As a result, you are not guaranteed a signed item when you complete an application.

You must be holding a fundraising event for your request to be eligible for a signed item, we do not supply signed items for occasions other than fundraising events. We request at least six weeks’ notice in advance of your event to ensure we can support you in time.
