What sort of chargers do hearing aids have?

My 91 year old mother has mislaid her hearing aid charger cable. Does anyone know what sort of cable it is likely to be so that one of us can replace it? The hearing aids are very new and modern (from Boots) and I am almost certain a usb type connection. I just wondered if there was an industry standard or if they vary by much.

Almost certainly either a USB-C cable or a mini/micro USB.

It depends.
If the aids go into a cradle then it will be either USB C or a barrel connector of some type
If the cable plugs into the aids then it will be a 1.3mm barrel connector.0
