Community Participation in Kondinin
How people contribute — volunteering, unpaid care and domestic work, and defence service.
More than a third of people in Kondinin volunteer, making it a place where community contribution is far more common than in the rest of the state. While volunteering rates have dipped since 2011, the town still sees a very high level of local engagement. This spirit of helping extends to home life, where unpaid care is more frequent than the national figure.
