A five-year-old deafblind boy is set to make his acting debut in EastEnders, with his mother expressing hope that his appearance will "break down barriers" for disabled children.
Harvey Hind, from Clitheroe, Lancashire, will feature in Wednesday’s episode of the BBC One soap, portraying Arlo, a pre-school character who is registered blind. His mother, Kimberly, believes Harvey's role will inspire other disabled children, particularly those who are deafblind, to understand that "they can achieve anything."
