"Every mile is an opportunity to have a conversation that could change, or even save, a life.
"The Dorset coastline is one of the most beautiful places in the country, and I'd love local people to come and walk alongside us.
"Whether you join us for ten minutes, an hour or the whole day, every person who walks becomes part of something much bigger.
"Together we can remind people that they are never alone."
The walks include a 21-mile route from Boscombe Pier to Poole via Hengistbury Head and back, starting at 8am on September 19.
On September 20, a 16-mile walk will take place from Studland Bay to Swanage, starting at 10am.
Members of the public are encouraged to join for as little or as much of either walk as they wish.
