How much will it cost to upgrade my C1 licence to HGV level?

I currently have a licence entitlement of C1 for up to 7.5 tonne lorries, but would like to upgrade to heavier vehicles, say up to 20 tonnes. Nobody can tell me how to do it and how much it will cost.

You need to contact an HGV instruction organisation. Generally the lessons and the test cost around £1500. Google HGV licence and it should get you there.
