Default Unknown, shoulder title & collar badge.

Hello all,
Recently picked these up at a flea market, and I haven't a clue as to what they they are. The shoulder title is white metal, size 50mm wide x 13mm high.
The collar badge is also of white metal and the size is 28mm x 28mm. Both items came in the same lot, and I do not know if they are related. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Michael

The feathers are unrelated to St. Vincent, and are worn (in pairs) by most of the Welsh Police forces as collar/epaulette badges. When you say "white metal" I take it you mean chrome plated.

Thank you SAPPER 533 and IRISHHORSE for your very fast response re the
Royal St Vincent Police Force shoulder title. And Dave for your info re the Welsh police collar badge, and yes I stand corrected, both are chrome plated.
Regards,
Michael
