I received the outcome for my work capability assessment on Thursday (29/06), and they found me 'Limited Capability for Work'. However, I believe it should be 'Limited Capability for Work & Work Related Activities'. 

I'm going to send it for mandatory reconsideration but is it worth waiting for the report first and then submitting an MR, and is my statement writing why I disagree with their decision, why I meet each descriptor and a supportive statement enough evidence to submit along with it?

    You don't need the assessment report to request the MR. If you haven't already looked at the descriptors you can see them here. https://www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/universal-credit-uc/uc-faq/limited-capability-for-work-related-activity

    Some people find it helpful to ask someone that knows them well to write a supporting letter. You should also give a couple of real world incidents of exactly what happened the last time you attempted each descriptor that applies to you.

    You can send any evidence you think is relevant.
