sounds like the starter motor , get someone to turn the key while you look underneath (make sure its not in gear ) if the starter motor clicks then the solenoids ok and it maybe just jammed , twat it with a hammer while someone turns the key, again make sure its not in gear and handbrakes on ,

It'll also just tick if you don't have enough power in the battery to turn the starter motor.
