The dad of a non-speaking, autistic boy who had the alphabet tattooed on his arm to help communicate with him says other parents are planning to do the same.
Dan Harris, 45, had the £180 tattoo completed on his left forearm three weeks ago after he became concerned that son Joshie, 11, can't always tell him what he wants.
Joshie, who was diagnosed with autism when he was two years old, uses an iPad, also known as his 'talker', to communicate his needs using simple words and pictures.
However Dan said the iPad can run out of charge or become damaged or lost which means that Joshie is left without the means to express his feelings.
