Whitwell Parish Council is a forward-thinking council with a principal role to provide for government and management of its area at local level. Specifically, councils are required to act as a representative, informed and responsible decision-maker in the interests of its community.
As a Local Council it has an extensive range of discretionary powers, enabling it to provide and maintain a variety of important and visible local services. This can be clearly evidenced in our community with the provision of open spaces, recreation equipment, allotments, cemetery, community buildings, as well as the provision of entertainment with the annual village gala and firework display to name a few.
