This site is for people who live and work in, or are visiting, the London Boroughs of Camden and Islington.

Getting around in a busy city isn’t always easy – particularly for older people, people with a disability, and parents with young children. That’s why we have developed this site.

Find my nearest enables you to look up amenities, such as doctors, banks and Post Offices, on easy to use interactive maps, and also enables you to locate essential facilities, such as parking and toilets. You can save multiple destinations and print your own maps. More about using Find my nearest.

Journey planning links you to websites and tools to help you get around by bus, tube, train and plane. We’ll be developing this area in future to enable you to do route planning from doorstep to destination in Camden and Islington.

Travel support gives you information about schemes to make travel easier for older people, people with disabilities, school children and hospital outpatients.

The Links section signposts you to a wider range of information and support covering things like benefits, health, access to disabled toilets and much more.

The What’s on events diary will inspire you to get out and about even more. You’ll be amazed at how much there is to do in Camden and Islington and Myjourney.org.uk will help you to find your way there – and back!

If you have any difficulties using this site or if you would like to suggest improvements, please let us know using the feedback form.
