ViewBag.Subheading = "Bringing to light".Replace(" ", " ");

And

@Html.Raw(ViewBag.Subheading)

Or you could do something like:

public static MvcHtmlString DisplayAndRetainSpaces(this HtmlHelper html, string value)
{
    return MvcHtmlString.Create(value.Replace(" ", " "));
}

Then call it like:

@Html.DisplayAndRetainSpaces(ViewBag.Subheading)

Use the entity for that:   for each space you want.

EDIT: If you already tried and didn't work, there's an helper for outputing html, which should work with the entity:

 @MvcHtmlString.Create(" ");
