Default Unknown Lapel Badge - C E M S?

Does anybody recognise this unknown, to me, lapel badge?

It came with a Red Cross badge. Possibly CEMS, although possibly ECMS etc

Made by H W Miller of Birmingham.

I have a bronze fob bearing the same - I understand it to be Church of England Missionary Society, although I have also seen it as Church of England Men's Society.

Hope this helps

Hi

Seen this as a small fob and also with enamelled detail but I might be wrong here.

Agree with your "reading" of the initials.
