The series of Design competitions were held annually from 1937 to 1941 for the award of scholarships and studentships were temporarily discontinued (beginning again in 1947) because so many of the potential candidates had joined the forces or had otherwise been clained for war work and therefore unable to compete. To preserve the Society's active promotion of the cause this essay Competition scheme was suggested.\n\nThe first competition was open to members of H.M. Forces of either sex (excluding the Home Guard) and the Merchant Navy. The closing date of this competition was 1 August 1943. \n\nThe second competition was open to officers and ratings of the Women's Royal Navy Service at home and overseas.

The competition closed on 15th September 1944 for home competitors and 31 December 1944 for overseas competitors. \n\nThe file contain records from both competitions including an original advertisement for the first, reports for both and administrative correspondence for the second.\n
