Community Participation in Beauchamp
How people contribute — volunteering, unpaid care and domestic work, and defence service.
Nearly one in three people in Beauchamp volunteer their time, making it a place where community contribution is far more common than in most other areas. This strong spirit of giving is mirrored in the high number of residents who provide unpaid childcare.

About 31% of residents volunteer, a figure that is far above the Victorian average of 13.3% and the national figure of 14.1%.

Unpaid childcare is very common here, with 34.5% of people providing this support, which is well above the national average of 26.3%. However, no one in the area reports providing other forms of unpaid care, and 17.2% do 15 or more hours of housework, which is well below the Australian figure of 20.7%.
