The International Down Syndrome Swimming Championships provide an opportunity for elite swimmers with Down syndrome to compete internationally. Daniel Rumsey, 21, from the Southern Highlands has been swimming competitively since he was a child, and has represented Australia in this competition several times. He has again been selected for Team Australia to compete at the fifth international meet to be held in Taiwan in October this year. Danny's friend Steph Wigens says he "holds the highest number of world records in the world". She is helping to promote a concert to assist Danny to fund his trip to Taiwan. The musician are Andrew Rumsey (Danny's brother, pictures with him above left) and friends, playing as Encore.
