Help Us Make Wishes Come True!

Gladiators, ready? Volunteers, ready? LET'S GO! 💪💜

The legendary Gladiators are returning to the AO Arena for an action-packed weekend, and Team Purple Heart Wishes needs YOU!

On Saturday 14 and Sunday 15 November, the Gladiators Live Tour brings the excitement of the hit television show to Manchester, complete with epic challenges, incredible athleticism, thrilling head-to-head battles and the iconic Eliminator!

With four performances across the weekend, we're looking for enthusiastic volunteers to help us raise vital funds and make every show count.

Whether you can join us for one performance or several, we'd love to have you on the team!

What's Involved?

As a Purple Heart Wishes volunteer, you'll be helping out on one of the food and drink kiosks inside the AO Arena, serving customers throughout the event.

Purple Heart Wishes receives a percentage of the kiosk's earnings, meaning every customer you serve helps us raise money to grant wishes for adults aged 18–55 living with terminal illness.

The busier we are, the more we can raise, and the more precious memories we can help create! 💜

Why Volunteer With Us?

There are plenty of reasons to get involved!

  • 💜 Help raise vital funds for an incredible cause.
  • 💪 Experience the excitement of the Gladiators Live Tour.
  • 🙌 Meet new people and join our friendly volunteer community.
  • ✨ Make a meaningful difference to individuals and families facing terminal illness.

No previous experience is needed, just a positive attitude, plenty of enthusiasm and a willingness to get stuck in!

Ready to Join Us?

With four performances taking place across the weekend, every helping hand makes a difference!
