Your IR(A) is not valid for helicopters.
Check out the PLD website. In particular, you should read <a href="http://www.srg.caa.co.uk/documents/srg_fcl_gid16.pdf" target="_blank">http://www.srg.caa.co.uk/documents/srg_fcl_gid16.pdf</a>
Note particularly the time limit in using your exemption from having to complete full time or abridged approved training under JAR-FCL
