Scarlett Moffatt donates to a food bank after previously offering to buy shopping for the elderly

She previously offered to help those in need with their shopping amid the coronavirus pandemic.

And Scarlett Moffatt once again showcased her kind side as she donated items to a food bank following a trip out to the shops on Thursday.

The TV personality, 30, took to Instagram where she revealed that she had brought food for people, including her own grandparents, before dropping off essential food items to her local church. 

Sharing a video of herself being driven around by her mum Betty, the former Gogglebox star gave an update of how things are in her local area of Bishop Auckland – and the star once again urged her fans not to hoard groceries.

She wrote: ‘I’m with my mum, we’ve been around the shops now trying to get stuff, for example my cousin couldn’t get any baby milk and we’ve been scouring around for baby milks.

‘I feel like everyone’s hording it because we don’t really know what’s happening. I do urge us not to hoard stuff.’

Scarlett then went on to explain that she had been to her local shop which still had rice, noodles, milk and bread in stock, should her followers need provisions.

She continued: ‘If anyone has anything spare, like we’re dropping some stuff off for Father Dennis at St. Mary’s church, but I’m sure that all local food banks and churches will need all of your help. 

‘Just drop things off like tinned potatoes, corned beef, things they could make meals out of. I’m sure that if you are out and about today, then yeah, drop some stuff off for those in need.’

She then shared snap of herself, with the caption: ‘Pasta meals, noodles and soup given to the food bank (couldn’t find any toilet roll for the elderly though.’

This was Scarlett’s seconmd act of kindess in a number of days as the TV favourite took to Instagram on Monday to ask her followers if anyone needed any items from the shops, as she prepared to head out to get provisions.

Sharing a selfie with the question, she wrote: ‘Going shopping tomorrow how can I help local elderly people in my area – I can leave food on their doorstep?’

Revealing she would be shopping in Bishop Auckland, Scarlett urged her followers to get in touch so that she could help everyone she could.

Scarlett went on to advise her fans not to panic buy as it takes away from others, as she added: ‘I do feel like we need to make sure we aren’t just thinking about ourselves in this situation.

‘It is an epidemic and we need to make sure we aren’t hoarding things unnecessarily and that we can helping people as much as we can.’ 

Earlier in the day, Scarlett appeared on Lorraine and discussed how things are going with her boyfriend Scott Dobinson, as well as her experience on Celebrity Bake Off. 

Host Lorraine Kelly commented that things between Scarlett and Scott, who she has been dating for over a year, seem to be going really well. 

Scarlett said: ‘I feel like I’m probably a bit quiet about it because it is going so well.’

She added: ‘I’m 30 this year and I feel like some people panic into thinking life’s a checklist and you’ve got to have got married and had kids by a certain age and it’s not like that. It can be any age.’

On dealing with online trolls, Scarlett said: ‘As I’ve got older, especially since meeting Scott actually, I’m sort of a bit like… 

‘I’m not saying it doesn’t affect us, it does, but I feel like a big thing for me is self-care, which I always thought was a bit hippy.

‘It is important to read the positive things and take yourself out of the situation. Don’t go on social media for a few days, do things you like doing like walking your dog.’
