Area guide: Brent

The London Borough of Brent is located in North West London and hugely multi-cultural, with a highly diverse population with no stand out ethnicity dominating the borough. It is easily most famous for being the home of Wembley Stadium, where spectators can often can sent into a boredom induced coma whilst watching the English national football team. However more excitingly there is Wembley Arena and a large factory outlet flanking Wembey Stadium with enviable eateries and shopping. It even has a Nandos.
