I'm trying to save a square image from illustrator. The background is totally white, with just black text and a black graphic in the centre. When I export it, it is only exporting the area which has the text and graphic. How do I save the WHOLE image?

I guess you meant you want to export your artwork, not saving your AI file.
The white background is not an object, it's your artboard. So, you can either create a white object that you place behind your graphic (which would be a better practice since this white block is part of your graphic) or, if you use "Save for the Web" feature, tick "Clip To Artboard Size" option.
Note that if you use PNG format, you also need to untick "transparency".
