My original thoughts of it being a sweetheart pin, are most assuredly wrong at this point. After Padre posted his info I decided to do some checking.
In David parsons' excellent book on RAF badges and uniforms - "Badges, Emblems and Uniforms of the Royal Air Force and Associated Associations", he shows two pictures of WRAFs wearing what also appear to be the pin, and makes comment ot that effect, bottom of page 51. Also, on page 603 he shows numerous versions of the badge, and again makes mention of it most likely being a WRAF badge. He further states that as the badge has lugs it is most likely a cap/uniform badge and less likely a sweetheart pin.
Perhaps not 100% finite, but seems very viable in my mind.
