Community Participation in Mogood
How people contribute — volunteering, unpaid care and domestic work, and defence service.
Far more people get involved in their community in Mogood than in most similar areas. This is especially true for unpaid care and volunteering, though the local patterns of support are quite unusual compared to the rest of the country.
Participation
Volunteering for organisations and groups.
Volunteering is very common here, with 23.8% of people helping out. This is well above the Australian figure of 14.1% and far above the New South Wales rate of 13.0%.
Unpaid care & work
Caring for others and unpaid domestic work.
Unpaid care is a major part of life for 42.9% of residents, which is far above the national figure of 11.9%. Interestingly, this happens while almost no one is caring for children unpaid and far fewer people do 15 or more hours of housework than in most other areas.
