Empirical study looking at user groups and 'officials' in two policy areas: mental health and disability. Examines the strategies user groups adopt to seek their objectives, and explores conceptual issues relating to notions of consumerism and citizenship. Discusses the way in which self organisation may be supported without being controlled by officials in statutory agencies, highlighting the need to understand and distinguish between user self organisation and user involvement. Concludes that if policy makers are genuinely committed to greater user involvement in design, planning and delivery of services, then user self organisation needs to be both encouraged and supported without being subsumed into 'management'.
