With all that's going on right now, it's easy to just see the negative, with people feeling so much fear, uncertainty and confusion.
But there are still plenty of things to be pleased about and plenty of good that can be done for those in need.
Aldi have just shared a very positive update on their social media, explaining how they are doing their part to help customers - especially those who would be most vulnerable to the coronavirus.
They said: "In these difficult times it’s important for us all to look after the most vulnerable people in our communities.
"To help support those valued customers, we’re donating £250,000 to Age UK."
They continued: "This donation will help to ensure that Age UK's vital services can stay open during this challenging time, helping to ensure that they can continue to support vulnerable members of the community who may not be able to get out to our stores."
The message has been shared over 1,000 times with many praising the supermarket for their action.
One person replied: "All I have to say is very well done Aldi."
Another wrote: "A big thank you to Aldi and the magnificent staff that have had to rise to this enormous challenge."
A third commented: "Well done Aldi thank you so much this will help lots of old people I am lucky I have a good family to help me but some people don’t."
However not everyone was as impressed with the kind gesture, with some complaining they should instead be doing more to stop shoppers from stockpiling unnecessarily.
A different user posted: "Very kind gesture but it would be beneficial to us elderly if you could please keep your shelves stocked I know its difficult but you did assure us you would.
"Yesterday the shelves in my local store were almost empty. At age 72 I was hoping not to go out again NO toilet paper even!!!"
This comes as a branch of Iceland in West Belfast decided to open their store an hour early, especially so the elderly could get what they needed.
The store announced that starting from March 17 they will open every Tuesday from 8-9am for elderly customers only.
In a statement Iceland said: "Iceland Foods will be opening their store between 8-9am for the elderly commencing Tuesday 17th March.
"Could the wider public please respect this hour, and understand that this time is allocated for elderly people only.", Belfast Live reports.
The heartwarming gesture has been applauded on social media including praise from celebrity chef Gino D'Acampo who tweeted "I like this.....very cool."
