You can't.

Your over 8-year old iPad Mini 1 is too old, now.


Sorry.


If you need/want an up to date iOS/iPadOS with updated apps, then you really need to seriously consider a new iPad model OR a much, MUCH “newer” , used iPad model capable of running the latest iPadOS 14 versions.

There are plenty of newer, older iPad models that can run the current iPadOS 14.



Sorry & Best of Luck to You!
