West London

Meet new people in Ealing

Ealing calls itself the Queen of the Suburbs, and it earns it: big parks, a busy town centre and a canal running through the west of the borough. It's also a place lots of people move to for more space, and then find their friends are all on the other side of London.

PingMee helps you build a circle closer to home. Post a status saying what you're up for (a walk on Ealing Common, food on Southall Broadway, a stroll along the canal at Hanwell), 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.
