Hardship payments while sanctioned

I am currently claiming JSA but have been told I am been sanctioned and that I can claim hardship payments.

What I want to know is if I have to repay the hardship payments at any point?

    If you are entitled then no you don't pay it back, it would be paid at a % of the benefits you've lost.
