In the UTF-8 encoding Lilypond uses it is possible to just type the 
unbreakable space in your editor, if your editor permits (some editors use 
e.g. Ctrl+Shift+Space).

Otherwise you can use \markup \char :

\markup {
  \override #'(line-width . 30)
  \wordwrap {
    a c  ffg dfg dfg gdf d f
    \concat { Hi \char #160 there! }
    bla bla
  }
}
