North London
Meet new people in Enfield
Enfield is London's northernmost borough, where the city gives way to country parks, the River Lee and the green belt. It has busy town centres in Enfield Town and Edmonton, suburban high streets in Palmers Green and Southgate, and more open space than almost anywhere else in London.
PingMee helps you meet the people around you. Post a status saying what you're up for (a walk in Trent Park, a run on Saturday morning, a coffee in Palmers Green), see who's nearby in Enfield 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.
