Community Participation in Glenlyon
How people contribute — volunteering, unpaid care and domestic work, and defence service.
A stark contrast exists between the high rate of volunteering and the very low levels of unpaid care in Glenlyon. While over one fifth of residents give their time to community causes, almost no one here is recorded as providing unpaid care for others.
