North-west London
Meet new people in Wembley and Brent
Brent is one of the most varied boroughs in London: the stadium and the arena at Wembley, busy high streets in Harlesden and Willesden, and calm, leafy corners around Queen's Park and Kensal Rise. Lots of people live here; plenty of them still don't know many people nearby.
PingMee helps change that. Post a status saying what you're up for (a walk in Gladstone Park, food at Boxpark before a gig, coffee on Salusbury Road), see who's around right now, and send them a ping. If they ping back, a private chat opens for the two of you. It's for new friends, relationships and networking, and it's free.
