The FSM Awards are organised by Western Business Media, which also publishes Fire Safety Matters and Security Matters magazines. Commenting on the shortlist, Western Business Media CEO Mark Sennett said: "We've been blown away by the amount and also the quality of entries we received. Having launched awards events before, we've never seen this many entries for inaugural awards. The fire and security sectors have truly embraced these awards and it's fantastic to see so many people keen to recognise the key role they play in keeping people and property safe. 

"I'd like to thank the judges for volunteering their time to be part of this process and I'd also like to thank the 200+ organisations who took time to enter. We look forward to seeing everyone on 28 April 2022 at the CBS Arena for the awards ceremony. It will offer a great night of entertainment and bringing people together after so long apart."
