National Trust charges TikTokers £360 for filming.

People creating commercial social media content at National Trust sites now face a £360 charge to film. The charity requires influencers, social media auditors, and citizen journalists to pre-book through its Filming and Locations Office before creating content. This isn't a new policy; the Trust collected £3.1m in fees last year.
