I hate the LCW assessment
If I get accepted onto the LCW I can't remember if I don't have to work or look for work, which would really annoy me as I want to at least do some volunteer work at my local hospital.
I was told either with the letter that came with the questionnaire or my work coach said that if I get accepted for the Limited Capability For Work and Work Related Activity then I might get more money.

I thought you already had LCW, is that correct? To answer your question, if you were found to have LCW you don't have to look for work but maybe expected to attend appointments with a work coach to prepare for work in the future.
If you were found to have LCWRA you will have no commitments which means you won't have to attend appointments or look for work. You won't even have a work coach. You would also receive extra money each month, providing your partner doesn't already receive the LCWRA element on your claim.
Regardless of what the is, it doesn't mean you can't work or even volunteer.
If found fit for work then of course you would be expected to look for work and attend appointments.

I do already have LCW, but I was sent a questionnaire to fill so that they can do a review and decide if I need a face to face review or not.
My partner doesn't have either on our UC claim.

As you already have LCW then if the decision remains the same nothing will change.
