Is it possible to for example use the 
 entity?

You can use any unicode characters.
Hi Drew,
They disappear when I enter them into a textarea and nothing is inserted in its' place in Perch so is there any special attribute I need to use?
Thank you
Make sure you are serving your site as UTF-8.
Hi Rachel,
I've got <meta charset="utf-8"> in the <head></head> and it validates as HTML5.
<meta charset="utf-8">
<head></head>
The Perch region is HTML enabled so I don't really know what I can do.
Are the characters at the start or end?
It's a non-breaking space so it's in between regular ASCII text.
Should be no problem then. Can you show us the addicted template tag?
