Help with the cap badge

Is there anyone who can help me identify the cap badge in this picture. His name is Thomas Bell, I believe he came from Newcastle upon Tyne though I can't recognise the badge in the photo?

Many thanks

He is in Hood Battalion, Royal Naval Division.

The RND records are available on Findmypast, but a quick look shows a number of Thomas Bell's. Do you know his date of birth?

Sepoy

It could be this chap who was killed in action on 3rd September, 1918.
