DW Renewable Energy are walking 100km to raise funds for Sight Support Worthing

Two Blokes. One Cause. 100 Kilometres. 24 Hours. Let’s Go.

DW Renewable Energy Ltd are swapping kilowatts for kilometres when Simon and James attempt the near-impossible: walking 100km across the rugged South Downs Way—in just 24 hours, on September 6th, 2025.

Why? For Sight Support Worthing—a remarkable local charity that’s been helping people with visual impairments live independently, confidently, and with dignity for over 100 years.

Founded in 1910, Sight Support Worthing has supported generations of local residents with everything from mobility and technology support to emotional wellbeing, social connection, and essential daily living guidance. In a world that often isn’t designed for visual impairment, their work makes an enormous difference—every single day.

We first met Jackie and Kate from the charity at a local Clean Growth Sustainability course, and were blown away by both their warmth and their drive. They’d already created a printed carbon reduction plan and had begun implementing it. Their passion for creating a more sustainable future was genuinely inspiring, and we wanted to help however we could.

That led to this: a commitment to take on the South Coast Ultra Challenge—100km in under 24 hours—to help raise funds that support Sight Support Worthing’s ongoing work and future sustainability goals.

Whether the money raised goes toward energy-saving tech, community services, or simply keeping their doors open—we know they’ll put it to good use.

We’ll be sharing training updates, kit tests, and behind-the-scenes highs and lows in the run-up to the big day—so follow DW Renewable Energy on our social media pages to track our progress, cheer us on, and get a few laughs at our pain.

If you’re able to give, no matter how much, please support our journey. Every step is powered by your generosity—and probably a disturbing number of blister plasters.

Let’s help Sight Support Worthing see a brighter, greener future.

Donate now. Share the page. Then sit back, relax, and feel very smug about not walking 100km in a day.
