"It shows miracles do happen": Mum of missing Ben Needham says Alex Batty case has given her fresh hope
31.12.2023 - 13:23 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
The mum of a little boy who vanished more than twenty years ago says the reappearance of Greater Manchester teenager Alex Batty has given her fresh hope of seeing her son again.
Kerry Needham has been searching for her son Ben since he vanished in 1991 whe he was almost two. And she has been heartened by the shock discovery in France of Alex, from Oldham, who disappeared six years ago when he was 11.
Kerry said the return of the now 17 year-old to live his grandma has made her more determined than ever to bring Ben home. “It shows miracles do happen and missing children do turn up even after several years" Kerry, 51, told the Mirror.

"Although the circumstances are very different, it gives me hope. I will never give up on the fact there’s always a chance my son could turn up too.
Ben was 21 months old when he vanished while staying with his grandparents on the Greek island of Kos. His body has never been found and police fear he died in a tragic accident involving a digger.
But Kerry believes he could still be alive and has launched an appeal to translate Ben’s missing posters into all 7,000 world languages. Kerry, who lives in Sheffield and also has a daughter, Leighanna, 29, said: “It would be incredible if we could have the poster translated into every single language, as you never know who might see it and come forward with information.
"If anyone can help, I would be so grateful. It might lead to finally finding out what happened to Ben.” The new push began after a member of the public offered to translate the poster into German.
“It was a great idea and of course we said yes. I don’t know why we didn’t think of it sooner.
