Community Participation in Pinnacle
How people contribute — volunteering, unpaid care and domestic work, and defence service.
Nearly one in five people in Pinnacle volunteer, a figure that is well above the national rate. This level of community spirit stands in contrast to the very low numbers of people providing unpaid care or housework in the area. It is a sparsely populated part of the Weddin region where community involvement is a key feature.

About 19.4% of residents volunteer their time, which is well above both the New South Wales figure of 13.0% and the Australian average of 14.1%.
Unpaid care & work
