Early lifeAcland was born in 1904 in Christchurch.{{sfn|Gustafson|1986|p=295}} His parents were Sir Hugh Acland (1874–1956), a prominent surgeon in New Zealand, and Evelyn Mary Acland (née Ovans). His great-grandfather was Sir Thomas Dyke Acland, 10th Baronet. His brother-in-law was Sir John Ormond. His cousin was Felicity Lusk, headmistress. He was educated at Waihi School and Christ's College.[1] When riding his motorbike, Acland was hit by a car on Christchurch's Park Terrace in October 1924. He suffered a complex break of his leg just above the ankle, and spent over a month in bed at his parent's house, Chippenham Lodge. With Frederick Wilding {{post-nominals|country=NZL|KC}} as his lawyer, he won a substantial compensation from the driver, and used the money to have his leg reset in England, where he spent one year. Despite this, he limped for the rest of his life.[2][3] On 12 June 1935, Acland married Katherine "Kit" Wilder Ormond, daughter of John Davies Ormond, Jr. and granddaughter of John Davies Ormond, Sr. The wedding was held at St Mary's Church at Waipukurau.[4][5] He worked on farms in South Canterbury, was a stockman and a driver. He worked in various jobs in Australia for some time before taking on the management of Mount Peel Station, which had been established by his grandfather, John Acland.{{sfn|Gustafson|1986|p=295}}[6] Due to his leg injury, he was rejected by the army.{{sfn|Gustafson|1986|p=295}} Political career{{NZ parlbox header|nolist = true|align = left}}{{NZ parlbox|start={{By-election link year|Temuka|1942}} |end=1943 |term=26th |electorate={{NZ electorate link|Temuka}} |party=New Zealand National Party }}{{NZ parlbox |start={{NZ election link year|1943}} |end=1946 |term=27th |electorate=Temuka |party=New Zealand National Party }}{{NZ parlbox footer}} He was elected to Parliament in the Canterbury electorate of Temuka in the {{By-election link|Temuka|1942}},{{sfn|Wilson|1985|p=179}} filling the vacancy caused by the death of Thomas Burnett.{{sfn|Gustafson|1986|p=302}} He was confirmed in the 1943 general election.{{sfn|Wilson|1985|p=179}} The Temuka electorate was abolished for the {{NZ election link|1946}}, when he stood in the {{NZ electorate link|Timaru}} electorate and was defeated by the incumbent from the Labour Party, Clyde Carr.{{sfn|Wilson|1985|pp=179, 188, 273}} Acland gained prominence in the wool industry.
