How to find mum friends in Lewisham

Lewisham has a very mixed and fast-growing population of young families, and much of local life happens in the smaller parks rather than the centre. Ladywell Fields and Hilly Fields are the two where parents with small children reliably turn up.

Where parents in Lewisham actually meet

• Ladywell Fields, following the river with flat paths and open grass.
• Hilly Fields, higher and quieter with a good playground.
• Manor House Gardens, small, enclosed and central.

None of this needs an introduction or a committee. Pick one, go at roughly the same time twice, and you will start recognising people — which is most of the battle.

How ParentGO helps

• Arrange a meet-up. Post a time and a place and see who is free.
• Message a parent directly. A conversation at a class does not have to end when the class does.
• Ask a local question. Which class is worth the money, where to go in Lewisham when it has rained for three days.

It is free to join, you choose how much you share, and dads, grandparents and carers use it too.
