Default CHRIST'S COLLEGE C.C.F.

I obtained this cloth shoulder title at Military Odyssey and would like to know if this is related to CHRIST'S HOSPITAL C.C.F. in Sussex or is it another school CCF elsewhere?
Thanks
Jerry

Jerry,
It might be Christ’s College Brecon? White on green South Wales Borderers colours??

Thanks for your replies. I have found this title so assume mine is linked to this school.

David,
Thank you for the correction and positive identification. When I made my ‘might be’ Brecon suggestion at post number 3, I had not seen your post number 2. The colours of these embroidered titles seem show to differently on various devices!

I have 1 example of the CHRIST'S HOSPITAL S/T and it appears to be white on black.
The S/T I have asked about is either white on black or a very dark blue(in my opinion)
My original question was to establish if the CHRIST'S COLLEGE title was one and the same as CHRIST'S HOSPITAL and it would seem NOT.

I thought the lettering looked white. But as I said in post 8, colours vary when viewed on different devices.

Tim agree 100% re colouring I was referring to post 9 not post 1
Post 9 he states Christs Hospital is white lettering from his thumbnail this is not correct as stated
