Title: TOC London School Badge

Not sure if this has been discussed before but what is this badge?  One has just gone on sale now & I've seen it before.

It sounds as though it could be the London school of the College of Occupational therapy?

Toc H is a organisation founded in WW1 and which still operates as a charity today.Some of the early badges which feature an emblem rather like the lamp of learning are sometimes listed as Nursing but checking the Ebay listing I think you probably mean a variant of the badge below?

The link you've supplied is a ? Nurse with a badge on her collar, is that right?
