Each year it produces the UK VA industry's survey, widely used by a variety of business organisations and government departments to provide insights into how VAs work. In 2020 it became a registered Community Interest Company. Along the way Caroline has lectured at various universities in the creative industries, appeared on conference panels, conducted workshops and presented at exhibitions such as London Excel, Strathclyde Business School and The VA Conference.   In her role as founder of SVA, she judges the VA of the Year Awards and runs the UK VA Survey  each year alongside still running her virtual assistant business as "the day job".
