As Luke says.

Note the QVC crown on the bugle horn and its Guelphic crown on top, both on an Edwardian badge.

As Simon says an Edwardian badge. It’s an FSC worn from 1905 when the SA honour was awarded and the scroll was tagged onto the earlier badge.

Incredibly, incredibly rare. I’ve only seen 2 others.
