We begin from the understanding that we are all related. Our lives, our futures, and our flourishing are bound up together not only with human kin, but with the wider living world we share.
Our work supports initiatives that make this relatedness visible and actionable. We show that solidarity does not need to be confined to inheritance or family wealth. By pooling resources, care, and responsibility, we open doors that would otherwise remain closed proving that opportunity is something we can create together.
Lemon Leopard helps shift the frame: from seeing support as something passed down within families, to living as if we are all chosen kin where care is shared, belonging is extended to all, and interrelatedness becomes a lived reality.
This song carries the same pulse that guides our work at Lemon Leopard. Its message is simple yet profound: our lives are bound together across people, place, and planet. The flourishing of one depends on the flourishing of all. By sharing All Related, we honour the spirit of chosen kinship, care, and mutual responsibility that inspires everything we do. Like the song, our mission is to remind one another that belonging is not only inherited, but created woven, note by note, in solidarity.
What if we organised our lives as though each of us truly belonged to one another, and to the Earth? Cosmopraxis is our way of living that question a practice of making kinship tangible in homes, communities, and the wider web of life
We support people who face barriers to opportunity due to unequal family wealth. By acting as chosen kin, supporters pool resources to provide access to housing, education, and life-changing opportunities. In this way, we create networks of interrelated people, where support is deliberate, equitable, and empowering rather than transactional.
We bring neglected local spaces back to life, transforming disused buildings and overlooked areas into hubs for community care and collaboration. Through co-design and shared stewardship, residents, local partners, and supporters see themselves as related to the places they inhabit, restoring vitality and cultivating belonging.
We nurture our connection with the wider natural world, funding initiatives that protect ecosystems, wildlife, and address climate challenges. By recognising ourselves as interrelated with the living world, we contribute to stewardship and long-term resilience, ensuring that human wellbeing is inseparable from the health of the planet and all its inhabitants.
Many are excluded from secure housing not because of talent or effort, but because they lack access to family wealth the so-called “Bank of Mum and Dad.” Adopt Us is our campaign to change this story. Instead of inheritance, we build chosen kinship networks where resources, guidance, and solidarity are shared. By taking action together, we open the door to security, co-ownership, and a deeper sense of belonging. Housing becomes not a privilege for the few, but a commons we all steward.
Across the country, pubs, halls, and other cherished gathering spaces are being sold off or redeveloped, severing the roots of community life. Common Ground is our campaign to protect and reimagine these places. We see them not as commodities, but as anchors of memory, culture, and care. By standing with local stewards, we transform threatened buildings into living commons places that remind us we are bound together and that belonging is always shared.
The climate crisis is a crisis of relationship. Too often, care for people and care for the planet are treated as separate concerns. Earth Kin is our campaign to restore that bond, starting close to home. Through community gardens, green rooftops, local habitat restoration, and mindful stewardship of nearby rivers, parks, and streets, we reconnect people with the more-than-human world around them. This is not charity for nature; it is reciprocity. Trees filter our air, soil nourishes our food, and local waterways sustain life. In return, we tend them as kin, nurturing the ecosystems that sustain our communities and our everyday lives. Earth Kin calls us back to this immediate, sacred responsibility.
The Future Kin campaign invites us to act as though those not yet born human and more-than-human alike are our kin. Every decision we make today ripples forward, shaping the worlds they will inherit. By recognising unborn people, plants, and animals as part of our extended family, we cultivate practices of care, responsibility, and stewardship that honour the interconnections between present actions and future lives. This campaign encourages communities to act in solidarity across time, nurturing a world that is just, thriving, and deeply related.
Together we’re transforming a disused London pub into secure, affordable homes where rent builds equity and residents co-own their future.
