Families who volunteer together : report on the state of family volunteering in the UK

Kamerāde, D

Abstract

This report uses nationally representative data from the United Kingdom Time Use Survey (UKTUS) 2014/2015 to examine –for the first time nationally and internationally - the extent and patterns of the household engagement in formal family volunteering. Family volunteering here is defined as two of more members of the same family and household volunteering together in a formal/organisational/group setting. It explores three critical aspects of family volunteering in the UK: the extent to which different family members volunteer together, separately or not at all, the relationships between family composition and volunteering, and the composition of family volunteering at the national level.
