Red Hill · Suburb / Locality
How people contribute — volunteering, unpaid care and domestic work, and defence service.
A massive gap exists between Red Hill and the rest of the country when it comes to unpaid child care. While child care is very common here, other forms of community service and unpaid care are almost non-existent. This creates a unique profile where family duties dominate over broader community participation.
Volunteering for organisations and groups.
Only 12.0% of people volunteer here, which is much lower than most similar areas and a little below the Australian figure of 14.1%.
