The Anglesey badge is for the Womens Institute.
I will attach the basic WI badge with this post, note the colours. There were also all sorts of local variations, such as the one you have. I believe that the WI came here from Canada during WW1, note maple leaf.

Billy,
I am pretty sure the AAC "for King and Country" badge is an Association of Conservative Clubs badge. Peter
