Default Help identifying WW1 regiment from photo

Hi there,

I'm hoping I can get some help identifying which WW1 British regiment my great uncle served in based on this photograph. It's not the best photo, but the cap badge appears to show a lion standing up holding a staff.

Fantastic - thanks for your help!! I was wondering why 'Lion holding staff' wasn't bringing up any results.
