Hi Clive,
Two chaps in front look to be wearing Artillery shaped badges, possibly Royal Artillery. Chap at back Royal Corps of Signals.
Cheers, Tinto

Man standing is R Sigs, I agree that the others are RA and that it looks like they're all wearing "hospital blues".
And now I've seen that R Sigs was already identified.
I'll get me coat.

They seem to be wearing white shirts and red ties so I would say definitely hospitalised.

The RCoS cap badge was worn from 1920-1946; I don't think the other badges and uniforms can help narrow down when the picture was taken.
