“Demand for our services continues to rise and we are hoping this event will raise awareness of our work as well as much-needed funds.
Safe in Sussex provides refuge accommodation for women and their children, as well as community programmes which include healthy relationship education to young people.
Worthing town crier Bob Smytherman and Worthing mayor Alex Harman will be starting the walk.
