Abstract Children are vulnerable, but children living in a high-risk community are considerably more so. It is essential to protect these children against forms of abuse to ensure their wellbeing. This must be done by fostering a safe living space. In order to create safe living spaces we need to include the children’s voices to participate in matters that affect them. The purpose of this study was to explore children’s perceptions on community safety in relation to child sexual abuse prevention. Purposive sampling was used to recruit 32 children aged 11 – 12 years living in a high-risk community. Four focus group discussions were used for data collection and included visual data collection methods such as The Child Protection Community Map of Courage. The data was analysed using thematic analysis. The findings indicated that the children experience their community as unsafe due to various factors.
