Community Participation in Mookerawa
How people contribute — volunteering, unpaid care and domestic work, and defence service.
A stark gap exists between Mookerawa and the rest of the country in how people contribute to their community. While some residents take on significant care roles, the area has far fewer volunteers than the national average.
Participation
Volunteering for organisations and groups.
No one in the area reported volunteering, which is far below the 13% seen in New South Wales and the 14.1% national figure.
Unpaid care & work
Caring for others and unpaid domestic work.
People providing unpaid care are well above the national figure at 16.7%. This is consistent with a much higher rate of residents doing 15 or more hours of unpaid housework (33.3%) compared to most areas, though child care is well below the state average.
