Community Participation in Bradys Lake
How people contribute — volunteering, unpaid care and domestic work, and defence service.
Community engagement has seen a notable shift in Bradys Lake since 2011, though current activity remains low. The area stands out for a high rate of domestic work, while formal volunteering is almost non-existent compared to the rest of the country.
Participation
Volunteering for organisations and groups.
No one in the area reported volunteering, a figure that is far below both the Tasmanian rate of 18% and the national figure of 14.1%.
Unpaid care & work
Caring for others and unpaid domestic work.
Unpaid care is a common part of life here, with 14.6% of people providing it, which is a little above the national figure. This is consistent with 34.1% of residents doing 15 or more hours of housework, a rate far above the 20.7% seen across Australia, though far fewer people provide unpaid childcare compared to most areas.
