You should be able to go to Snow Leopard but maybe not further:
Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'

OS 10.6 Snow Leopard is once again available from the Apple Store:

and in the UK:

but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
To use iCloud you have to upgrade at least to Lion, but some functions are only available in Mountain Lion:

You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
