If you want to be an extra on Eastenders only, then you could try the Eastenders production office, thought I doubt they would take you on without some experience.
As CheekyChops suggests, sign up with an agency ( and avoid any that ask for a payment ).
If you want to work on Eastenders, it would be best if you live in or near Borehamwood, as extras don't get paid a lot, and the work may only a few days each month, so you may not make much of a living out of it.
Fees can range from �25 ( Equity minimum is �40 ) to �100 per day, but this will depend on the production company.

This is from the BBC website:
