WW2 Home Front Girls Training Corps ( GTC ) Embroidered Cloth Unit Patch - Rare

A very rare patch, possibly worn by an officer of the unit on the dark blue jacket. White letters GTC on a black background in a red circle. The edges of this show a lot of wear / damage but a very scarce item. Circa 4.5cm in diameter. Any information welcome.

The Girls Training Corps was formed in 1942 and were a uniformed youth organisation for young girls who drilled together prior to enlisting in the women's services upon attaining the correct age. The girls provided their own outfits with officers wearing a dark blue jacket.
