If I request to be in the support group as I am presently in the WRAG would this mean that I would be transferred to UC

You need a daily living award of PIP for this. You also need to live alone or be treated as living alone, no other adults living with you unless they either claim a qualifying disability benefit theirself or they are registered blind.No one must claim either carers allowance or carers element of UC for looking after you.0 -

Whether you qualify for SDP if you're successfully awarded daily living PIP will depend on who you live with, as advised here.poppy123456 said:You also need to live alone or be treated as living alone, no other adults living with you unless they either claim a qualifying disability benefit theirself or they are registered blind.No one must claim either carers allowance or carers element of UC for looking after you.1

At the moment the only things that will end your ESA are
- if you choose to end UC, or
- you start to live with someone as a partner who already gets UC
- or you come into capital which takes you over £16,000.
Everything thing you have asked about are just changes to your ESA.
The government currently intend to require you to apply for UC in 2028, some quite a long time before then.
