Rose badges are 55th West Lancashire Division and the Lancastrian Training Brigade

The 3 red shoulder titles are for those regiments and won on the upper shoulder of their Battle Dress. The AG wing is for an RAF Air Gunner and would be worn on the left breast above the pocket.. I am not qualified to say if they are good or bad, nor can I date them. There are far greater minds than mine here, so I am sure you will be getting further information.

The Seaforth title is a modern reproduction; the typeface is wrong.

Thanks. The images are fine. The title is, unfortunately, a copy.

The Lancashire Fus. titles are genuine, but likely from the early post WW2 period.
