Whitwick Parish Council
The Parish Council has a Community Notice Board in Market Place (behind the Post Box) that you can use to publicise your Whitwick community group or local event. You can also send details to the Community Office – by email, post or pop it in the letterbox. If people ask us for information like this we will be able to let them know.
The 2021 Census showed the population as 8,229.
