Default Chess set for a blind student

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone can help.

I have recently started teaching chess at a school in Melbourne where one of the students is blind. He is a beginner and is currently using a standard set slightly modified to assist him recognising black and white pieces and squares on the board.

I was wondering if anyone knows where I can get access to (borrow) a tactile set suitable for the blind. Later, if he shows interest in continuing with chess, we would look at buying a set.
