Sporting Marvels sees Dream Centre Wales as the home church of the ministry and its personnel make a huge effort to support DCW church Sunday services, small groups, and activities.

The charity has a special place in DCWs heart and it mainly supports orphanages, schools and deprived communities in the Arusha region of Tanzania.
Acts Church Rhondda
Dream Centre Wales is grateful for the huge effort Acts Church Tylorstown puts into its Foodbank ministry. Their efforts ensure there is support for individuals and families facing hardship throughout the Rhondda Valleys, and the church has been a monthly financial partner of the Foodbank for many years now.
DCW F.C
DCW FC was formed out of the heart of Dream Centre Wales Church, located in Ystrad Rhondda. The vision behind the club was to bring our young men into deeper fellowship by creating opportunities to spend more meaningful time together. Football, a sport the boys truly love, became the perfect platform to build friendships, encourage teamwork, and strengthen unity. Through training, matches, and shared experiences both on and off the pitch, DCW FC aims to foster a sense of belonging, personal growth, and positive community rooted in faith and fellowship.
R.C.T Rockets
Dream Centre Wales Church loves sport, and with so many of our female members playing netball for RCT Rockets teams, we do our best when we can to support this fantastic initiative which is inspiring women and girls from the Valleys to go toe-to-toe with Wales' best and most prestigious teams. We've seen God work so much through sport at our church, and we know the best is still to come.
