Independent journalism with a local lens.
We’re all about seeing clearly – and that includes the news.
That’s why EYES on St Albans supports the St Albans Times – our brilliant local news platform delivering independent, well-researched stories that actually matter to the people who live here.
In a world full of clickbait and cookie-cutter headlines, the St Albans Times brings clarity, curiosity and proper community reporting. It’s written and edited by people who know the area, care about the stories, and capture St Albans as it really is – from the serious stuff to the smile-worthy moments.
We advertise weekly, bringing our own mix of optical know-how, eyewear style and a healthy dose of puns – because who says local journalism can’t share a bit of our rock’n’roll?

Add in photojournalism that shines a light on the best of the city – from community events to iconic spots – and you’ve got a news source that feels like it really belongs here – edited by people who care.
Jez supports the Times because it reflects what we value most: independence, integrity, and a real connection to the people of St Albans.
“The support of Jez and EYES on St Albans has proved crucial in establishing and growing the St Albans Times over the past few years. He has been a constant ambassador for the newspaper and never misses an opportunity to promote our work, and I cannot express my gratitude enough for having him on board.“
– Matt Adams, Editor, St Albans Times
