Framlingham · Suburb / Locality
Community Participation in Framlingham
How people contribute — volunteering, unpaid care and domestic work, and defence service.
A well above average rate of community contribution defines Framlingham, where local involvement far exceeds state and national levels. This is most visible in the high number of people who volunteer and those who provide unpaid care for others.
Participation
Volunteering for organisations and groups.
About 20.3% of people here volunteer, which is well above the Victorian figure of 13.3% and the national figure of 14.1%.
Unpaid care & work
Caring for others and unpaid domestic work.
Support roles are common, with 20.3% of people providing unpaid care, a figure well above the 11.9% seen across Australia. This is consistent with a much higher rate of people caring for children unpaid (33.1%) and more people spending 15 or more hours on housework than the state average.
