Kensington Health, a non\u002Dprofit organization, provides long\u002Dterm and hospice care among other services.
The hospice’s medical director, Dr. Naheed Dosani, says the approach is “all about radical love and caring for people who deserve that care.”
“You’re not going to be abandoned, I’m here,” Dedam recalls telling Ackroyd. She would see him every day from then on. “I didn’t know how to get a job or learn anything proper,” he says. “I survived the best way I could doing armed robberies, doing B&Es or whatever I had to do to raise money.”Ackroyd spent about four years behind bars, mostly during his 20s. He served as an air cadet, worked in the army briefly and took care of homes for a landlord for a spell.
“I still like to do drugs — I love cocaine — and I still have a drug problem,” he says with a big grin.
