PIP can be harder to get than WCA, as you have to have difficulties completing simple tasks like washing and taking medication. 

Look online for the full PIP descriptors to see if you'll qualify.

PIP and LCWRA are completely diffferent benefits, with different criteria. Claiming one doesn't automatically entitle you to the other. There's certainly no harm in mentioning you're receiving PIP.

For LCWRA you can see the descriptors here. https://www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/universal-credit-uc/uc-faq/limited-capability-for-work-related-activity

LCW descriptors here. https://www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/universal-credit-uc/uc-faq/limited-capability-for-work
